Mi Vida Loca


I know every girl you ask would say that their honey is talented in some shape or form...but my honey really is talented!!!

I love hand made gifts, but this one really brought me to tears...happy ones that is. For those of you who really know me you understand a lot more about this painting. It's not just hot pink, glittery and pretty.

Living in South LA gave me an every day experience with the Mexican culture. Being a white girl from NoCal, my life dramatically changed when I moved to LA. I ate Mexican food every day, shopped at the Mexican grocery stores, learned how to cook traditional food from my close friends and their family and even learned how to speak Spanish at work. This painting means so much to me because my honey knows my past, my passion and is ridding with me into the future. Every day I walk into my studio I get a 4ft visual of beautiful pink glamorous happiness. Thank you Joey...you rock my socks off!

Mi Vida Loca!!!
