My passion for drawing and painting native people comes from my own native background. It is a way to represent where I came from and who I am. Painting mothers and their children gives me great joy. The inspiration comes from having my own children. It is also a special way to honor the memory of my mother. Combination water color and pastel on cotton canvas / picture from original For my dear friend Jeri – who has been a mother to me

Another photomontage of images I found around the web (links below). I wanted to create an image reminiscent of Baz Lurhmann’s “Romeo & Juliet” movie imagery. This portrait worked well with the religious imagery – I didn’t want anything obvious. This type of imagery is very powerful to me, but not for religious reasons. I just find it perfectly encapsulates the American-Hispanic passion and culture – the juxtaposition of fierce faith and violence (much like Lurhmann’s film actually). / / / /

Famous and loved by the locals.. I always go for a visit when I am in Old San Juan , Puerto Rico . this place is famous for only men attending yu :) woooooo hoo!.. AND for the mallorcas.. and a mallorca is simply puertto rican bread grilled .. while hot , they squish it and sprinkle powdered sugar on it.. and serve with fresh butter….. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.. A Puerto Rican Sunday morning institution, La Bombonera offers huge mallorcas and other baked items. It’s a well-kept secret, however is its ability to prepare excellent meals consistently. La Bombonera attracts huge crowds on weekends. Be sure to try the Puerto Rican coffee. Housed in an historical building, this operation’s colonial décor provides for great atmosphere and a chance to mix and mingle with the locals.

Sharing the Fire – original sold / When I was growing up, my mother used to make flour tortillas almost every day. During the hot summer days, her friends and neighbors would get together to make tortillas outside their homes. They would share the fire on this big metal burner. This painting reflects my memory of it. I also remember a small blue crooked table where they used to put the tortillas. It was probably made by somebody for kids to play with. I loved to eat the tortillas when they were hot off the burner. I would stay close by so I could have one. Now I make tortillas almost every weekend for my boys. They love them. They always come and stand behind me asking for one. And of course, Sasha the dog would love to have one too. I have changed my mother’s tortilla recipe. She used to use lard. My recipe for a dozen tortillas: / 2 cups all purpose flour / 1/2 teaspoon salt / 1/2 teaspoon baking powder / 1/4 cup extra light olive oil / 1/2 cup warm water

we were walking and so was she.. I had just arrived to the island and headed straight for one of my favorite spots in the world :) / Old San Juan , Puerto rico . Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. / I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size / But when I start to tell them, / They think I’m telling lies. / I say, / It’s in the reach of my arms, / The span of my hips, / The stride of my step, / The curl of my lips. / I’m a woman / Phenomenally. / Phenomenal woman, / That’s me. I walk into a room / Just as cool as you please, / And to a man, / The fellows stand or / Fall down on their knees. / Then they swarm around me, / A hive of honey bees. / I say, / It’s the fire in my eyes, / And the flash of my teeth, / The swing in my waist, / And the joy in my feet. / I’m a woman Maya Angelou

Easter Celebration

I took this shot, as I was in the park.. and having a beautiful time taking the australian pines in my camera.. and loving the day.. and then i saw them.. the girls.. and from afar I took this moment.. Cape Carl, Florida The Quinceañera or Quince años, in Latin American culture, is a coming of age ceremony held on a girl’s fifteenth birthday. The term “Quinceaños” refers to the birthday of the celebrant and the term “Quinceañera” refers to the celebrant herself. Like many other coming of age ceremonies, the Quinceaños is associated with the Quinceañera “becoming a woman”. Often, a young woman who has celebrated her Quinceañera may be addressed with the honorific “Señorita”, which is reserved for un-married adult women. The traditions for a girls 15 birthday was originally from the French and English or England. This is a change from young girl to womanhood, from flat shoes to high heels. The celebration carries deep religious significance. The celebration begins with a religious ceremony in which the Quinceañera affirms her faith. It is customary for the Quinceañera to receive gifts that are religious in nature such as a cross or medal, a Bible (prayer book), rosary, or scepter, and these gifts are often a part of the ceremony. After the conclusion of the religious ceremony, a reception is held either in the Quinceañera’s home or in a banquet hall. Decor of this reception often resembles that of a wedding. The Quinceañera’s court is typically comprised of her “Padrinos” (godparents) and a “Chambelan,” (literally, “chamberlain”) a young man who is her companion and date for the evening. The Chambelan typically has the first dance with the Quinceañera, a traditional ballroom waltz called a “Vals”. The Chambelan initiates the Vals by requesting a dance with the Quinceañera to a classical song, followed by dances requested with her by her father or another close male relative such as an uncle or older brother, and then her Godfather. Following these initial presentation dances, the guests join the dance floor as well. Some Latino cultures have the girl’s first dance begin with her father as her partner, and then he is cut in on by her escort. Godparents play a significant role in the preparations for the Quinceaños, often handling arrangements for the party, church and celebration. The event is the culmination of their responsibility in the church to oversee the religious upbringing of their goddaughter
