ABOUT THE ARTWORK

My Grey Autumn is a series of paintings that I made while living in London, England during a lovely and romantic afternoon of autumn (perhaps my favorite time of the year). Real maple tree leaves collected from Hyde Park were used for drawing. # 1 of 3.

PURE ART. I see myself as “The Painter Who Loves Colors”. Beauty still represents art to me and I do embrace it when I paint. After two decades working as a fashion designer in the United States, Europe and Latin America, I felt a need to go back to my first love painting. I mainly work in oil on canvas and I also use acrylic, watercolors, pastels and ink to create mixed media work and collage. Lot of colors is usually found on my palette including but not limited: cadmium yellow, ivory black, olive green, phthalo blue, titanium white, venetian red, flesh tint and violet winsor. I enjoy painting landscapes, portraits, city landmarks, things that capture my interest and also spiritual revelation in my dreams. I won my first drawing competition at the age of seven. After finishing my military duties in the navy I soon moved into fashion after obtaining a scholarship from winning a drawing competition on national television. Graduating as a fashion designer from the Instituto Tecnologico Mercy Jacquez, another scholarship was granted from the Escuela de Altos de Chavon. I moved to the United States where I have been granted several prizes including scholarship to study at Miami International University of Art & Design in Florida (mentioned above) and the Centre de Formation Professionelle des Arts de la Mode, FORMAMOD in Paris. I also studied at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. I have been awarded with a Certificate of Appreciation from the Metropolitan Dade County Florida and Honour Mention awards from Air France and Art-Deco Period drawing contests both held at Miami International University of Art & Design. Studio Visit Magazine- Volume eighteen, People Magazine, El Nuevo Herald and Impacto Latin News (in the USA); Drapers Record, The Guardian, Good Life Magazine, Hello Magazine and Karisma Magazine (in the UK); Listin Diario, La Tarde Alegre, El Caribe and Hoy (in Dominican Republic), just to mention a few. I moved to the United Kingdom. England became my new home and I spent almost a decade living and working in London where I had the opportunity to further develop both my career in art and fashion. Since my return to the United States in 2006 I have lived in both Florida and Ohio. I am a Dominican-born American/ British artist with strong interest also in photography; my other sources of interest are: music, cooking, sport, traveling and spending time with my friends and family. I am fluent in English and Spanish.
