Mona, Mona, Mona.....


Several weeks ago I received an invitation from MANO Fine Art to create my interpretation of one of the world's most famous paintings: The Mona Lisa.

Talk about a creative challenge and a very inspiring one indeed for me. Leonardo da Vinci was the artist that wanted me to paint as a little child. My father came home with a book about Da Vinci's work and I was in awe with every picture in that book. By the time my father sat down to look in the book himself, my little fingerprints were all over every page.

I made a triptych (3 canvasses of 12x12") like a little story board and put Mona Lisa in a different background and not as the pretty little model with the mysterious smile, but an active young woman . I named the triptych "Mona Lisa Rules".

And here is my little teaser for this exposition: a small strip of one of the canvasses.

If you want to see the rest of this painting and all the other interpretations, you should come to
MANO Fine Art Project Space
4225 SW 75 Avenue
Miami, FL

Opening Reception will be on Saturday,  September 17 · 7:00pm - 10:00pm.

    I say… I put things off a lot and don't seem to get nearly anything done.

  3. My coder is trying to convince me to move to .
    net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.

    But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on several websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
    I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?

    Any help would be really appreciated!

  6. When I initially commented I seem to have clicked on the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox
    and now every time a comment is added I recieve 4 emails with
    the exact same comment. Is there an easy method you
    can remove me from that service? Thanks a lot!

  7. Good day! I know this is kinda off topic nevertheless I'd figured I'd
    ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest writing a blog article or vice-versa?

    My blog goes over a lot of the same topics as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other.
    If you are interested feel free to send me an email.
    I look forward to hearing from you! Superb blog by the way!
