Don Pedro Albizu Campos, Visionario


The return of the "Visionaries" series of portraits sees a rendition of Puerto Rican Freedom Fighter Pedro Albizu Campos.  A revolutionary leader, Albizu Campos stressed the importance of cultural identity in the community as a means to unite the people in harmony and freedom.  Behind Don Pedro is my interpretation of the flag created for the "Grito de Lares" revolt of 1868.  This piece was painted using PrismaColor Markers.

Prints are available at the Coqui Jams shop on Etsy, with T-shirts to follow.
