As usual I love to felt seashores, sunsets as well. It is so much fun to play with the colors!

As I grew up in the tropics the sea is an important theme in my work.

On June 2, 2023, I was surprised by been given an Honorable Mention and the R.E.D. Exhibition of the

Art & Cultural Council of Bucks County, and also more than that , my piece was sold that night!

It feel good to be recognized. Thank you to Bucksarts!

It was long time since a wove so it was so much fun to work with the different kind of materials.

I used my memories to weave. It is in the inland of my country Venezuela, when the BUCARE flowers,

from January to May, so the bright colors shows in the mountains. It was so much fun to make it!

Here you have a variation of media. Watercolors, gouache, metallic watercolors, pencil, acrylics………. Love to make different things, love to play with colors!

Many many watercolors, but I love to paint with that medium! Some are better than others, but this is the way

to keep them altogether!

My watercolor, “SEA”, was chosen by the bucksarts.org to match the poem “Atop a Cornish Tor”, very proud

of it, as it is the first of my paintings being published.

Many faces I have done in the last months, it is intriguing to make. I want to make more….All in

watercolors of course, I love that medium!

I found this small frame and decided it was perfect for a needle felted sunset! It is small but contains the “air” of the sea at a sunset. Love it!

As you can see I have been painting a lot. I am back home so I will continue with my fiber work. Thank you for watching~

It is so much fun to paint veggies and fruits, with watercolors. I will continue …… ….

Love to paint flowers!
