Hello everyone and welcome to my website I want to thank you for looking and stopping by.
My love for the beauty of the female body and the sensuality of it draws me to focus most of my oil paintings in that direction.
I especially love the old, Edwardian-Victorian Era.
I grew up in El Paso, Texas and Ciudad Juarez Chihuahua Mexico. The Latin culture has great religious influence in all aspects of life especially in art. It has definately influenced me in my art.
Having spent a lot of weekends in my Great-Grandmother's home which used to be a convent in the 1800's, I strongly remember the cathedral windows, the religious statues which were still there and the beautiful religious art.
No doubt this has heavily influenced the direction of art which I have taken.
I believe Angels are always watching us and I want to take a small part in reminding us that they are always there to help us in every way they can.
It is through my Angel art that I wish to remind us we have someone always taking care of us and watching us. If we have reminders such as statues and art that we have Angels all around us the greater we will have a connection to our own Angels.
When starting a new piece of Art, I meditate and ask for guidance on a new piece of Angel art, and it is the steinned glass affect that my Angels show me.
Thank you so much for stopping by.

I hope my art speaks to you the way it speaks to me.
Thank you so much for stopping by.
Feel free to drop me a line.
