About The Artwork
We all have times in our lives where tremendous courage is needed. When we must face enormous challenges that test our inner power and reveals our utmost strength. I am inspired to paint these strong women by the stories my mother tells me of herself growing up in the Dominican Republic facing extreme poverty and hunger, immigrating to the United States at 17, alone, afraid, a women of color in a very unforgiving time. She encountered tremendous hardship yet she never gave up or lost her hope or her courage. This painting of biblical Esther is for that women who faces her challenges with strength, blind courage, tremendous faith and resolve. Knowing she will succeed no matter what. The colors I use are bright and vibrant, I also incorporate paper, fabric, found objects, collage, words, poetry, onto my portraits.

Dominican born artist. I Take inspiration for my work from my countries rich culture and complicated heritage as well as the strong, fearless, women ( my mother and grandmother) who raised me. I also use historical and biblical women for inspiration. My focus is the use of color, texture, found objects , words, to tell a story. I use strong facial expression to relate a feeling, emotion, as well as tell a narrative. I use recycled material as often as I can to do my part for the environment as well as a reminder of the poverty and the need to reuse materials that my mother and grandmother needed to utilize in order to survive. I use paper, fabric, pen, ink, paint, stencils, etc. In most of my work. Makes it interesting and creates lovely texture. I make my own wooden support.
