The Artwork
Earlier this year I discovered a new trend in the art world and that was embroidered canvases. I thought it was so interesting and knew I wanted to expand my own art skills and imagination, so I decided to adapt that trend and use amazon birds as my inspiration - since they have such an important cultural significance for me.
Washington d.c. series
Inspired by my Brooklyn Bridge print series, I explored the idea of creating a series based on my own hometown - Washington, D.C. I carved a few iconic monuments and buildings that make Washington D.C, D.C. Within this ongoing collection, you will find the Capitol Building, the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial, and the Reflecting pool (stay tuned) among the background of contrasting colors and flowers. These gems are just some of the symbols of this magnificent city.
Baseball stadium mini series
After the Chicago Cubs won the 2016 World Series, I was on cloud nine. That series, or more specifically that third out of the 10th inning, was a magical moment. That World Series win and the resulting bliss will be the best sports event I ever witness. In the post-World Series win, I began creating baseball themed paintings, starting out with 'The Wrigley field' painting of course.
brooklyn bridge series
When I visited New York City in the summer of 2017, it was the first time I actually walked around the city (I know). My friends took me to see a few of the iconic spots— such as Central Park, Times Square, and the Brooklyn Bridge— that make New York City, New York City This print series was born out of my experience walking across the Brooklyn Bridge.
