A field of flowers.
I painted Xochihua for Pride Month. In Nahua tradition, xochihua refers to people assigned male at birth who follow a feminine path. Here, two lovers meet among flowers, carrying blossoms gathered from the earth and offering affection freely beneath the open sky.
For my queer artwork and stories:

Art Nouveau vs Art Deco
Though their names are often mentioned together, these two styles belong to different moments in design history.
Art Nouveau emerged in the 1890s and remained influential until the First World War. It is defined by organic curves, floral and plant-inspired motifs, flowing lines, asymmetry, and a strong use of iron and glass.
Art Deco rose to prominence in the 1920s and 1930s. In contrast, it favored geometry, symmetry, stepped forms, and bold decorative motifs such as sunbursts, zigzags, and streamlined vertical emphasis.
