Heavenly Denim, Earthly Care 📝
Oil on canvas
36” x 26
I am thrilled to share my latest creation, “Heavenly Denim, Earthly Care.” This piece is a heartfelt exploration of kindness and protection amidst the evolving tapestry of our world. In a classical yet modern twist, an angel discreetly clad in blue jeans and a white T-shirt tenderly cradles a small cat with an injured leg. Through this work, I aim to capture the essence of compassion, reminding us of the profound impact of gentle care and guardianship. My hope is that it inspires you to embrace peace and empathy, nurturing the bonds we share with all living beings.

Federico Escobar Rios Columbian Photojournalist for NY Times . Humbled that he gave me the permission to paint his portrait whose facial expression is just very striking and vivid and capturing his emotions was just awe-inspiring. Another for the books that made me feel good as an artist.

An example of beauty of mixed race. “Being half, I am evidence that race, too, will become relic. Eventually we're all going to be brown, sort of. Some days, when I'm reeling grand, I feel brand-new - like a prototype. Back in the olden days, my dad's ancestors got stuck behind the Alps and my mom's on the east side of the Urals. Now, oddly, I straddle this blessed, ever-shrinking world.”
