This painting was created at the start of the first lockdown and it was inspired by a photograph taken by a cousin of mine. The photograph was taken in the hometown of our grandparents, Arandas Jalisco. It's a painting that I believe helps us both stay connected and helps us remember the lands of our ancestors.

Elizabeth Munzon received a Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) emphasized in Figurative Painting and Drawing with a minor in Marketing from California State University, Long Beach in 2017. The same year, Munzon co-founded Flatline, an artist run gallery that also serves as Munzon's working art studio located in North Long Beach CA. Munzon creates figurative oil paintings inspired by her Mexican roots and culture.
