This artwork was created in collaboration with the students of DILLARD ELEMENTARY SCHOOL in Fort Lauderdale during their Career Day. Dillard Elementary primarily serves underprivileged children and their families and I had the opportunity, for the 3rd time in a row, of speaking to them about the different jobs they could do if they choose to be creatives when they grow up. I am committed to donating the proceeds from the sale of this piece back to the school. My intention is to request that the funds be used to establish a creative program, as I believe the school currently doesn't have one.

I was Born in Havana Cuba — moved to Miami Florida during mid teens — Served in The US Navy right out of high school — During my 20s I received a formal education in architecture, art, and design — I believe there is a chance the universe is a simulation where nothing has innate meaning, so we get to give everything the meaning we want — I believe that what we observe creates our reality — beauty and ugliness inhabit same exact space at the same exact time. It is only us create the experience by observing.
