After seeing Kathe Kollwitz's prints, I was inspired to spend more time with charcoal than I had before in my drawing classes. It was about capturing light with a presence of a enclosed emotion. These are the drawings I came up with as I developed my mark. I had to draw myself over and over again to see what I was looking for. And my cat...well what can I say...he has a pink frame.

Mejor que con Dios

so here it is now one of my finished pieces ready to go up Oct. 1st at the University of Texas-Pan American. I am so excited to do once more a solo exhibition. I learn so much from Dia de los Muertos...I do not think I will ever get tired of it. It always makes me try new media and be daring. Will be posting more once the exhibit goes up =)
