This single stayed on my mind for nearly a month (and much longer) as I awaited its release! It is a blend of different genre types from around the globe, making it “world music” and I’m here for the Avant- Garde style. It’s one of my more lively songs, and I would certainly say made…

Not Keeping My Mouth Shut
I am Afro Mexicana, and proudly American. No, I don’t watch football, so I didn’t watch the halftime show. However, I have words. First out of the gate – someone mentioned people shouldn’t complain because they eat salsa, chips, guacamole and drink tequila. Pause. Bad Bunny, Benito…is Puerto Rican. So that’s mofongo, plantain chips, and…
Great News!
I wokeup to an incredible email, and couldn’t be happier! Last week, I submitted my art to The Writing Fae, and it was accepted! I am so grateful for this opportunity. I typically push my writing, but I have a ton of Fantasy themed art work, both by traditional mediums and digital. I am unsure…
Transmuting Hatred

Typically, most subjects started with the type of art (Modern, Classical Art, Surrealism) and from then on, you…

What aspects of your cultural heritage are you most proud of or interested in? What I learned from my abuela was to garden. Unfortunately, she was hiding her heritage, so I had to learn odd things here and there. I had an idea she was Mexican (coffee ice cream, and banana popsicles gave her away)…
Not A Dire Need
This topic has been discussed so much, I have it memorized. So far, my twin flame and I have discussed the places we want to go, but first he’s moving from NC to Denver pretty soon! After that, I am unsure. I mentioned getting an RV and doing roadtrips with my boys to acclimate them…especially…
Ah, Yes. But What Am I?
Religion had died away, as have the traditions they once held. While mega churches are still attempting to broadcast online and ask for offerings, a lot of the churches in my city have either shut down, or are operating halfway. A family member of mine made a huge deal of Easter this year. They purchased…
