Dreaming

 

This painting was inspired by my childhood memories on my grandmother’s ranch, and my longing to once again experience the beauty of its landscape. The profile of a girl in a traditional Cuban headdress is a tribute to the Cuban artists I was exposed to as a teenager in Miami. It’s a nostalgic representation of a bygone era. The unwinding headdress symbolizes my hope for freedom of thought and action for the people of Cuba.
