2 and 10 for the ask thing.
2. What’s your favorite finished piece?
I can’t choose an absolute favorite, but this one is pretty high up there:
This was my first cross stitch commission and probably the biggest piece I’ve ever done (cross stitch wise, not embroidery wise)
10. How/where do you get your patterns?
Honestly, pinterest is your best friend. I also make a lot of my patterns, so sometimes all I need is a little starter and then I can go from there, so I hop on pinterest and get some ideas and then piece something together. Etsy is also full of some great patterns, and they generally don’t cost a lot!

Una de mis pinturas. Representa Cuauhtémoc como un luchador, con Cortés parado sobre el; en el fondo Tlazolteotl y Tezcatlipoca. Todos están vestidos de luchadores, para llevar el pasado al presente, y mostrar que la historia aún vive dentro de nosotros. Pastel sobre papel, y las figuras están de tamaño real. #cuauhtémoc #pastelpainting #mexicanartist #chicanoart
