For the Love of Trees: A Journey to Connection and Healing

On a recent trip to Florida, I had the joy of visiting one of my favorite trees: a majestic Southern Live Oak located in front of the Mennello Museum, across from Loch Haven Park. This tree, started in 1688 and now over 333 years old, stands as a testament to time, endurance, and the beauty of nature’s power. Being in the presence of this ancient tree is more than just a visual experience—it’s a spiritual one. The massive branches that stretch to the ground, the plants living among them, and the energy radiating from the tree create a sense of awe and peace that is difficult to describe.

The Journey of "Mi Alma": From Struggle to Healing Through Art

"Mi Alma" is more than just an art piece; it represents a profound journey of healing and self-discovery. It all began when I decided to take professional photos in nature for my website. I reached out to Fernando Samalot, a gifted photographer, who suggested a magical spot in "El Yunque" for our shoot. Surrounded by nature's beauty, I immersed myself in the creative process, using natural clay mixed with water to paint fabric, almost forgetting Fernando was capturing the moment
