Visual Art – San Antonio

I am 26, and a single mom of a four year old little girl. I find that duality expresses itself in me quite a bit naturally as a Gemini. My parents are immigrants from Mexico and i was the fist of their children born in the U.S. and was instilled with both cultures and languages at the same time, growing up. I was raised in a small north Texas town where everyone knows everything about everyone else, but i came of age in the city where i was free to be myself in every way. In the same way my body of work isn't one or the other, not only are my mexican roots present, but my american interests are as well.
