I was born in Oaxaca, Mexico. At the age of seven I would look up at the stars and I dreamed of a better life that was different from the one that I had. So I moved to Mexico City to live with my grandparents. Even though I was not encouraged to pursue art, my passion bloomed in Mexico City. Exposure to Rufino Tamayo, Frida Kahlo and Remedios Varo inspired my painting style. When I moved to the United States I worked for the author Isabel Allende and she asked me "what would you like to create for your life here?" I told her I wanted to be an artist like Diego Rivera. The very next day she gave me paint brushes and said "Here start painting! My style consists of surrealistic women, flowers and nature using brilliant colors and advanced techniques. The style is uniquely my own.
