Luchadora Series

 

"Viva la Cerveza"

Beer can collage nailed to acrylic painting

Luchadoras are the female fighters of  Mexican wrestling/Lucha Libre

They are a symbol of Power, Strength and Bad-Assery

To me, they represent what a woman is capable of but not given credit for,

that if challenged, we will F*ck you up - and look good doing it.

These paintings along with other BoneWerx goodies are currently showing at:

 CANDY BABEL: 1219 NE ALBERTA ST. 

Thru February 28th

Wrestling is one of the last true rebellions

Little birds

Inspired by antique daguerreotypes, I painted quirky bird portraits

on "upcycled" denim for a rustic Americana feel. The denim is mounted to

cedar fence board scraps that I 'reclaimed' from a neighbor. 

The vintage beer cans came from an estate sale of an avid breweriana collector

(who I can only hope is not rolling in his grave!)

Each bottle cap has been pounded flat by hand, burned in the fire

and sanded for just the right patina.

5.5 x 6.5 each

Yeah . . . I put a bird on it!

Hammsa

Hammsa: Protector of sky blue waters

Apparently, few people realize that the iconic palm-shaped amulet,
popular throughout the Middle East and North Africa, depicting the right hand with 2 thumbs,
an image recognized and used as a sign of protection in many societies throughout history,
and believed to provide defense against the evil eye. . .
 is called a Hamsa.

But that's OK!
I guess it's my own inside joke,
and I'm still giggling!

Commission for a friend to her Lover:

The request was to convey a love of music, beer and spirituality. 

I hope this fits the bill
