Duality 1: Run Through My Veins, 65×85 inches [Large Painting], Acrylics & Oil-based Pastels.

The Poem:

Throughout my life
I’ve been looking for a source
of reliance,
of resilience,
of endurance,
And perseverance…
in the deepest of my soul
I’ve encountered
my insignia,
my identity,
my assurance to believe,
this is what I was meant to do,
This is what I was born to be.

La Historia:
”Encerrado entre cuatro paredes obstruía el paso a la creatividad, al deseo de triunfar en el aquí y en el ahora… pero entonces, desgarré mi piel con lanzas de metal que desparramaron ríos de esperanza para evolucionar y transmutar mi tristeza en lo que realmente me hace feliz.”
