My Story

I am an artist from Bogota, Colombia. After meeting my husband, the love of my life, and having my two boys I began my dream of art.

Since moving to the US, I have been inspired to tell my story through artwork. I try to capture the beauty of the people, history, and amazing scenery of Colombia and the US that has helped shaped me to become the person I am today.

Not only do I enjoy painting what others can see, but also things from my dreams. Since I was little, I have always had vivid dreams with people I’ve never met before. I bring some of these dreams to life on my canvas. They hold more of a whimsical feel than my more realistic painting, but holds a place in my heart nonetheless. My art tells the story of my journey as an artist, and as a person. Every piece of my art holds apart of my story, my dreams, or a beautiful sight before me.

I am always experimenting with new techniques and trying to make the ones I know even better. The current mediums I am using are oil paint on canvas or wood, acrylic paint on canvas panel or wood, charcoal on paper, and watercolor on paint or cotton.
