This artwork began with a rare, intimate photograph of Marilyn Monroe from her early career, before she became an icon. The piece features a unique rattan frame, pink hues, and overlaid painting. It's an elegant and personal tribute, capturing both the raw and tender essence of the woman behind the fame.

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.
