Rafael – 8 in. x 6 in. Egg Tempera on Panel
Rafael is the quintessential Puerto Rican man. He loves salsa, eats rice and beans, loves his baseball, works hard with his hands and loves his family passionately. This is the man that I want to be. The wrinkles on his face the strong shoulders, the unselfish father and husband. The man that I wish I was and hope to one day become.
