Calendas are, and have always been, for many Oaxacans a party, the time to throw the house through the window; the time to open ourselves and our fellow men; to enjoy after a long time of hard work; of leaving aside the secrecy and breaking the routine; to show the Patron Saint how important it is in the community; and even the time to ask for a favor through a Manda.

I am a multi-media artist and craftswoman. My training includes coursework in sculpture at the Corcoran School in Washington, DC and at the Rufino Tamayo Taller in Oaxaca, Mexico, where I lived for 14 years until 2021. I've worked extensively in many genres including paper and digital collage, acrylic and oil painting, needle felting, paper mache, colored pencil, watercolor and line drawing. My experience in the active artistic community of Oaxaca was richly rewarding.
