My poetic vision is romantic and nostalgic where my dreams come true…. Where I can lose myself in a world of beauty and peace.

My favorite type of art is to create my portrait and still life, the pre-production to create and then photograph and later to hand color the images… is like the old masters did before they started the painting.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from music, old movies, books, museums and when I travel to Europe to see and photograph gardens and historical architecture.
What would you do with $25,000?I think I will share with some of my friends and family members that they have the help and more than half to save because I am 66 years old, not able to work because of health issues…. And above everything, to be able to say that my artwork has been appreciated after 35 years of doing my artwork to share with others some beauty that we all need more than ever.
