I LOVE CORPUS CHRISTI
Where we live, work, and visit shapes the story of our lives. We leave a piece of ourselves there and we take a piece with us in our hearts. Here is a real art piece you can hang on your walls. I wanted to pay tribute to Corpus Christi, Texas because I was so grateful to have grown up in this area. I drew inspiration from old postcards that I saw from the 1970's. I decided to update the postcard idea as a work of art, and show how the city looks today. I also hope to add some of the cities I have visited in my lifetime. Cities like: New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Denver, San Diego, Orlando, Atlanta, St. Louis, Albuquerque, Beirut, and Mexico City. But I can't do all of those until I first make one for the place I live in now - Kingsville, Texas (that's next). Along with other Texas cities like Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, El Paso, and of course Austin. As time passes, I will grow older and these cities will evolve. And by God's grace, I hope to continue capturing the essence of these changes for long as I am able. |
