The rose journey
A rose to a rose
The genesis of my rose journey traces back to childhood, to a cherished gift from my mother: a drawing by one of her students. It was a man, rendered in the evocative Chicano style, cradling a rose. Inscribed above and below was the phrase, "a rose to a rose." That image of raw beauty and cultural resonance, seized my imagination, planting the seed from which my the rose would blossom.
Years passed. The arenas of collegiate achievement called, and twice I stood victorious amidst the cheering crowds in the granddaddy of them all, the Rose Bowl. Post-graduation, I found myself drawn to the vibrant embrace of the Rose City, a place that echoed with a familiar allure.
Now, I weave these moments - the quiet beginnings, the resounding triumphs, the gentle spirit of a city - into my art. The rose, a symbol of ephemeral beauty and enduring strength, became my muse, my confessional. It is the language through which I articulate the life I perceive, the incandescent moments I choose to magnify. My work is an offering, a heartfelt tribute to the unfolding panorama of my existence. I invite you to share in this vision.
