About Me:
I'm a painter and love the arts in all forms...right now working on a series called, "Julia's Journeys" and it's about my Grandmothers emigration to the U.S. from Guatemala in the 1940's, when she was a young beautiful woman in a bad situation. I wrote stories to paint, since I didn't know her actual journey, so they are based in reality, but are considered fictional, filled with many embellishments;)

Dia de los Muertos: A Night of Art, Music and Fashion Mayhem event at The Mint, November 3rd

To start with, Beat Box Armada is hitting the left coast! On November 3rd, a Tuesday night, my talented lil sis, Maria Calderon, a singer/songwriter, is performing with this great group of musicians, designers & artists, (including me;).

I also wanted to spread the word that her debut album is officially out! It’s called, Manik, and I would describe it as sultry latin lounge, downtempo, electo-acoustic grooves. Take a listen & pick one up here: www.mContinue

Julia's Journeys, Easter was coming, 1945




"It had been four long years since she talked to them, her boys...the pain she felt was still deep. This was the only way she could have done it, left that situation. The boys were safe with her sister now. She couldn’t get them yet...if she talked to them she would break...better t… Continue

Introducing Julia's Journeys....

Julia's Journeys, 9/16/45 Part One






Her long slender fingers lit her last cigarette, as Julia peered out at the street, "Where is he?" She wondered. She finally made it all the way to L.A. Quite a journey for a Guatemalan Mother & wife, to leave it all behind. This decision… Continue

Lark,

In March 2010, there will be a series of events in Mexico City, Mexico, Los Angeles, California, and other cities, meant to be a ritual of mourning for the femicides in Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua: Art as a pathway of opposition and resistance to violence.

We invite you to be part of this initiative of art activism. Below is the link to the blog we have dedicated to this and where you will find the Call for Entries. This invitation is open to all individuals, groups, organizations, artists and activists. The events in March 2010 will include awareness raising creative workshops, intervention actions, plays and performances and the exhibition of the art work received through the call for entries and the resulting art from the workshops. http://unaoracionporjuarez.blogspot.com/

For those who do not live in Mexico City or Los Angeles metropolitan areas, we invite you to organize your own community activity during the same month of March, 2010. It could be an Art Exhibit, a book discussion, a movie screening, a poetry reading, etc. We ask you to include the original title of this event “A Prayer for Juarez,” and to send us your schedule, and later on, photos and documentation, to be included in the blog.

To include your event, or for any kind of issue related, please write to us:
In the US: aprayerforjuarez@gmail.com
In Mexico: unaoracionporjuarez@gmail.com

Creating protest art transcends culture and gender. We are united in a larger community of like-minds and humanitarian goals. We thank you in advance for your dedication and your prayers for the women of Ciudad Juarez. NI UNA MAS!

PLEASE FORWARD THIS DATA TO PEOPLE YOU KNOW
WHO WOULD BE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING

I must feel safe and secure enough to express my art in a way that will not be suppressed by my environment; that is when I feel safe, secure; when I feel as though I can produce anything. Memories, peace of mind and strong emotions also help. My ar…
