Life as a Celebration: Nola Mandala
This Mandala was created using Mardi Gras beads that I collected this year in New Orleans. "Life as a Celebration" seemed to me the overriding theme during this beautiful event of the human spirit. Never have I seen so much imagination, dancing, and smiles in one place.
Price: $350
13" by 13"

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.

El Flamboyan
Delonix regia is a species of
flowering plant from the Fabaceae family, Caesalpinioideae subfamilia,
noted for its fern-like leaves and flamboyant display of flowers. In
many tropical parts of countries around the world it is grown as an
ornamental tree and in English it is given the name Royal Poinciana or
Flamboyant. It is also one of several trees known as Flame tree.

Mandala Le Lo Lai

"Mandala Le Lo Lai" is the third in a series of Mandala style paintings each based on aspects of Puerto Rican culture. This particular addition to the series focuses on musical instruments that have become tradional throughout the islands history.
Although I am exploring Puerto Rican themes in this current foray into my ancestral culture, my art is heavily influenced by many cultures including Asian, Indian, American Comic, and animation. The use of extensive geometry, and play on symmetry vs asymmetry is an ongoing study into visual aesthetics.

Boriquen Dreams

This is my latest PrismaColor Painting, stemming from my ancestral, and continuing fascination with my land of origin, Puerto Rico. It was drawn and colored by hand, consuming around 200 hours of labor. I hope that it inspires, and brings joy to all, not only those of you who can directly associate. It is a celebration of nature, culture, and progression. I'm selling Full Resolution Matted Prints on Etsy.com.
