The Thousand and One Nights of Alhambra

Today we’ll feel and experience Alhambra featuring an interview with incomparable Yolanda Gonzalez! Yolanda was born into a family whose artistic heritage dates back to 1877. Her world is one of curiosity, demonstrating her love of people and their surroundings. González’s travels in different countries, the bonds forged with individuals in those places, and the resulting transformative experiences are reflected in her art and her life. She is known for her strong, bold brush strokes of color and texture, intent on evoking imagination and emotion. In working with Private as well Public commissions Yolanda finds joy in an experience to collaborate. Being inspired by the vision of beauty in our universe, Yolanda believes we are all inspired by the beauty that surrounds us, she strives to convey this beauty through Art.
