Art tells a story - past, present, and future. It is a place to get lost - and found. From the first original painting I purchased in the streets of La Paz, Bolivia in 1995 to my latest piece- a pop art “Unamused” I acquired during the 2021 Miami Art Basel from the amazing Billy Bodden (billybodden.com) who will be the next topic of conversation in the art world. Additionally, this collection includes the art of an Andy Warhol contemporary . It also includes inspiring pieces painted by my 92 year old grandmother and my 23 year old niece.
My days and nights have been filled with the stories of the artists and the art itself. Everyday, I am reminded life is a canvas we paint with our brushes, imagination, and dreams. I want it to be a shared experience. Many of the artworks I collected during my travels around the world. I hope you enjoy them.
The work pictured here”Whiskey Tango Foxtrot” is not in my collection. Versions of it can be found at the Wynwood Walls gift shop in Miami, Florida. There, I am reminded of Banksy’s “Exit through the Gift Shop” as the Wynwood Walls now charges an entry fee - but not if you are just visiting the gift shop.
The blogs or vlogs of this site will include the WTFs - who, when, where, and what the ?’s - of art. Much of the commentary will focus on the ever-changing Miami arts and leisure scene.
