The juror selected my painting, Mariela, to be in the March Open Exhibit

Vibrant and dreamlike, Mariela is a captivating 24″ x 48″ original painting that overflows with whimsical energy and bold color. Blending neo-expressionist motifs with playful surrealism, this horizontal statement piece features a rich tapestry of figures, nature, and symbolism—including a striking blue dinosaur silhouette, radiant sun, stylized eye, and fluid organic forms in electric shades of pink, purple, blue, and yellow. Its expansive format and vivid palette make it a dynamic focal point for modern interiors, creative studios, or contemporary art collections.
