"Every change on the planet and in my existence is necessary and variety and contrast is part of my physical and spiritual growth. I trust the process, I find harmony and I know that everything is fine."  
Ely Lugo
 
This is the first piece in the Series called Creencias (Beliefs). It was created from my sketch on paper and painted in color with acrylics on canvas. 
 
I want to express to you that this series is about a way of thinking and living that has worked for me as I walk through life, experiencing and changing stages. I used the female face to represent maternal strength and intuitively worked through the rest of the piece to build its story.
