Lupe Velez -"mexican spit fire" mexican actress of hollywood, 20's

this other paiting was created to remember this wonderful actress that in a way opened doors to the many mexican actresses in hollywood today. she is not mentioned anymore at all, and not many know about her, that's why I chose to paint her for this day of the dead. she had a short life, died pretty young. she was very open, liberal and controversial for the she lived her life in the time she lived. Very open mided and cool mexicana. I hope this painting is liked. It will be shown at the Pajaro Valley Art gallery in Watsonville california from Oct 15 --> December 5th. It will be for sale as well. If interested go ahead and email me.

Chicana Art by Alejandra
About	News	Galeria	Education	Links
Welcome / Bienvenidos I'm Alejandra. I love painting and that is why I decided to create this website to make my art public and accessible to everyone. I graduated from CSU Monterey Bay earning a B.A. in the Integrated Studies Special Program. My focus was Visual Arts and History of the Americas. I have also applied to the Counselor Education program at San Jose State, and hopefully I'll get in. The main objective of this web space is to display my art works, (paintings) and some of the pieces that are still in progress. I'm also a mother of a beautiful 3 year old daughter who has become my greatest inspiration and my model as well. I am very interested in Chicana Art, and that is why I chose that to be my webstie title, because I am Chicana and I'm also an artist that wants to create beautiful art for a social/environmental purpose of educating, raising awareness and creating change, not just to decorate. I am also very proud of my Purepecha heritage. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you like it. Enjoy! email me at: lafrida.@. yahoo.com Catholic Ceremonies in the lives of Latinas, 2004 (capstone project)

Exhibited at the CSU Monterey Bay Library on 7/02/04
