Art Plus Academy Gift & Greeting Card

Business Description

I grew up in Mexico City where I showed skill in the visual arts but did not feel the need to pursue it. I earned my BA and MBA in Information Systems and successfully worked in the field for years. In 1991, I yearned for more, and enrolled myself in drawing and painting classes. Over the next 4 years, I experimented and gravitated towards realistic portraiture and human figure painting. My work attracted attention of collectors. In 2000, my family and I moved to Austin, TX, a place known for a larger artistic community. In 2002, my contemporary abstract pieces were highly accepted. My work is now widely collected in USA, Mexico, Norway, and Venezuela. Additionally, my work has been selected for publication in the "American Art Collector - Juried Competition of New Work" for three consecutive years. I then began teaching art in 2008 in order to share my knowledge and experience so I may continue to grow. Teaching has continued to fill my soul with pride and satisfaction even today
