Paintings

Welcome to my world of colors, textures, and stories. I am a painter, illustrator, and artist. My journey through art is diverse, reflecting my love for different mediums and the stories they can tell. I work in watercolor, copper foil, and acrylic, creating pieces that range from a few inches wide to expansive wall-sized works.

"Portrait Of Helen Fabela Chávez"

First displayed with my custom altar at the California Museum in Sacramento in 2024, now hanging in a place of honor at the Helen Fabela Chávez Early Learning Campus in San Francisco. Watercolor and copper foil.

My favorite mediums to paint in are acrylics, watercolors, & inks, with rich embellishments of Prismacolor pencils, foil, digital finnesse & feelings.

Sometimes I need to create a mess to find clarity. Art is about expressing what’s within and revealing what emerges can surprise me. From mermaids to witches to Día de los Muertos, these symbols reflect themes of healing, cross-cultural pollination, community connection, and resilience.

"Grief In Copper" Series

A collection of pieces exploring healing through grief with the help of colored pencils, acrylic paint, and copper foil.
