Artist Statement:

"As an artist, it's important
for me to give the viewer the
opportunity to become one with
sensitivity, in time, this art
will reveal a truth that
conveys an existence that is
unique to our world in the 21
st century. In my art, the
mixed media technique opens
the doors of dimension,
allowing me to abstract from
the primitive, modern and
contemporary state. I believe
that music and art is an
abstract through which we can
channel ourselves, consciously
or subconsciously, to
experience the universe of
life. I am a studio artist,
the main source for my
materials and inspiration
comes from the streets and
highways, the windshield of my
vehicle is like portal which
allows me to capture bits and
pieces of the passing
landscape...before 911 I was
mostly painting still life and
portraits, after 911 I was
drawn to paint that which was
outside of myself, outside my
door, giving me, my own true
sense of the abstract. In
early 2002 I painted my first
series of works in mixed
media, "Barrio Pop", depicting
and celebrating street icons
from the south-most barrios of
Brownsville TX, such as Taco
stands, 99 cent stores, used
tire...

I think your work is brilliant and colorful. We should get together sometime to exchange thoughts on the primitive nature of images. Perhaps we can have a show together in Brownsville before the year is up.

I see you have more pretty paintings keep up the good work

Brad Michael Moore
Olla Cande! Music and visual art are such a nice combination of forces to drive the creative spirit. Most of my favorites, here, are in your mixed media groups from late 2003 and 2004. I hope your work finds itself a larger audience beyond Tejas, for it is very much deserving. Perhaps this aa portfolio can help you achieve that. Best of luck and continued growth!
