The Art of Lupe Flores

One of my favorite artists is Lupe Flores. While we have never met in person we go back a while back to 2004 when we both were listing art on Ebay. I’ve watched her art develop over the years and it’s been incredible to see the different types of art she has created.

Lupe’s art includes paintings, hand stitched dolls, clay dolls and more recently a new line of t-shirts with her Dia de los Muertos themed art!

 

She has also teamed up with Saide on a line of paper mache painted calavera skulls.

Lupe’s art is also one of this months featured artists on ArtByLatinaArtists.com.
