Pepe Parra, an Artist whose work revolves around Mexican folklore, traditions and popular art. He captures in his work elements of Mexican popular art, inspired by the nature and traditions of the environment as seen according to the perception of Mexican culture.
In addition to always considering motifs, icons, colors, indigenous graphics and Mexican folklore. The use of representative colors and materials that he uses in his work allude to Mexican crafts and popular art, in this way he transmits to us a part of our national identity.

“It is the job of the artist to shed light on the human heart.”
~ Schumann~
A beautiful quote that I keep close. It is my everyday reminder that art is a purity of self-expression.
I let myself dream, drift and create through writing, painting and photography. My gallery is my sanctuary where this all comes together. It lives and breathes with me.
I would describe my work as mixed media. The paints are oils, the canvas is glass and the pieces are a mixture of natural elements; such as leaves and sand along with my photography and painting. I will often use my writing in the pieces, sometimes legible and sometimes just a simple, beautiful line that dances across the painting.
I feel inspired when I am outside and connected to the earth, and because of this connection, I have chosen to work directly on the glass. I love the idea that it is not just a work surface but an organic material, a translucent surface that changes with light, allowing it to become as much a part of the piece as the image itself.
