Artist Statement:
When you close your eyes, you
see with your heart. Look into
my heart through my paintings.
My abstract figurative
paintings always have their
eyes closed as if deep in
dreamy thought of what they
could be if they would only
risk change. My painting style
is one of "meridians". These
one of a kind original
abstract acrylic portraits are
painted with the body's yin
yang meridian positive and
negative energy of the day
that inspired me to pick up a
brush and express myself. The
effect is almost stained
glassed and mainly "yang"
directed with a focused,
logical, and action oriented
energy which flows from the
sun and runs from the fingers
to the face. I am a
self-taught artist currently
concentrating on being
possessed and prolific in my
art with a focus on abstract
acrylic figurative
"meridianed" paintings. See

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I have always loved to draw. From the first crayon I held in my hand, I have always looked at what movement colors can create. I am always inspired by the lines, shapes, textures, and colors of nature and life's surroundings. Some people see things as they are, I see things as they could be. |

| Your Personal Biography |
LIFE taught artist. Having been a daughter, sister, wife, mother for so long now, I seem to have lost the ME in there. I'm at a place in time when I want to reconnect to being 'Martha' and not 'Mom', 'Honey', 'Mrs. Ramirez'. Like most women, I fell into a pattern of doing for others first and as time went by the more you do for others the less time you take for the 'ME' in you. I thought it was time to be what I always dreamed of being, an ARTIST! |
