| Portrait " Con el Orgullo Indio en el Alma Tatuado" |

| Propaganda " La Matanza al Indigena" |
For this small works I decided to go back to my roots.
For the portrait section I portray an enlighten mestiza girl, this was inspired because every time I have to put my race in a paper work I get a little upset. I am not either white or black but I do not have other choice. I have a beautiful mixture of Indigenous and European mostly Spaniard thanks to Christopher Columbus and the discovery of America. I have to admit that when I was a girl I hated that mixture but as I grow old I cannot be more proud of my roots and my Andean heritage. I am a Proudly Mestiza "Con el Orgullo Indio en el Alma Tatuado" !!!

The propaganda section gave me a little more of trouble, I had a bunch of ideas but I was not sure of how to execute them. At the beginning I thought of making propaganda about women issues but honestly it was a subject too broad. My second thought was to make a statement on how oil companies destroy amazon environment, destroying not only nature but putting in risk ancient tribes survival. Finally, I decided to go back to the start of tribal endanger, Christopher Columbus with the conquers of america killed, steal and force ancient tribes to change their way of living. "La matanza al indigena" is not only physical and the saddest part is that in the 21st century still happens.

For both pieces I used mixed media and experiment with wet and dry drawing supplies.
