ELIZABETH ERAZO BAEZ PUERTO RICAN ARTIST DEPICTS THE COLORS OF EMOTIONS Welcome to my site. I am Elizabeth Erazo Baez, Puerto Rican Artist. Art and being an artist has always been part of me. I believe that God has blessed me with the gift of Art in my life, and it is one of the many blessings that I enjoy most. I love to paint themes of Latin American traditions, specifically of Puerto Rican culture, landscapes, seascapes, portraits and the richness of color found in the still life of tropical fruits and plants. In my art I try to use the typical brilliant and rich colors that I remember seeing in La Isla del Encanto, Puerto Rico. I am very proud of our culture, and enjoy learning more everyday about our traditions and people. Born in Brooklyn, New York, of Puerto Rican parents, later on I moved to Puerto Rico as a young girl. At that time, I felt like I was introduced to real color. Living in New York can be gray at times, with all the tall buildings. So when I saw all that color! There was bright green everywhere. When the sunlight hits that rich lush tropical landscape- *now that is real color. Well you can believe that drawing was all this little "Newyorican" girl did. Now I live in Miami, Florida, filled with bright sunlight and lots of bright greens and a family of my own. As an adult, I realized art was not just something I liked* to do, being an artist is a important part of who I am. I am inspired by love of family life, America, Latin culture, pride of the Puerto Rican culture-- being "boricua,"-- the light of our spirit. From the details of flowers in a landscape, a little girl's smile, love of animals, the spirituality and light that fills us, the waves of the sea, to the solitude that haunts us. Color speaks to us everywhere, to truly see it, I believe you have to feel it." •••••••••••••• Bienvenido! Soy Elizabeth Erazo Baez, Artista Puertorriqueña. El arte y ser un artista siempre ha sido parte de mí. Creo que Dios me ha bendecido con el Arte en mi vida, y es uno de los bendiciones que me llena el corazón. Amo pintar los temas de tradiciones latinas, especialmente de la cultura Puertorriqueña, paisajes de puerto rico, vistas del mar, la riqueza del color encontrarda en la naturaleza de frutas y plantas tropicales. En mi arte trato de utilizar los colores típicos, brillantes y ricos que yo recuerdo a ver visto en La Isla del Encanto, Puerto Rico. Estoy muy orgullosa de nuestra cultura, y desfruto que todos los días aprendo algo nuevo acerca de nuestras tradiciones y nuestra gente. Naci en Brooklyn, Nueva York, de padres Puertorriqueños, luego cuando yo era una niña mi familia y yo nos mudamos a la bella isla de Puerto Rico. En aquel momento, yo sentía que fue como una introducion al color verdadero. Vivir en Nueva York puede ser un poco gris a veces, con todos los edificios altos. ¡Y cuando yo vi todo ese color! Había brillante verde por todas partes. Cuándo la luz del sol golpea ese paisaje tropical, exuberante y rico- eso es color verdadero. Usted puede creer que dibujar era todo que esta niña "Newyorican" hizo. *Ahora vivo en Miami, Florida* con mi propia familia, y donde esta llenó de la luz del sol brillante y mucho colores brillantes . Ahora como un adulta, yo me dí cuenta que el arte no era apenas algo yo aprecié hacer, ser un artista es unas de las cosas mas importante de mi vida. Inspirada por el amor de la vida de familia, Estados Unidos, la cultura latína, el orgullo de la cultura Puertorriqueña, (ser "boricua,")- y de la luz de nuestro espíritu. De los detalles de flores en un paisaje, sonrisas de niños, amor por los animales, la espiritualidad y la luz que nos llena, las ondas del mar, y a la soledad que nos frecuenta. El color habla con nosotros por todas partes, para verlo sinceramente, yo creo que usted lo tiene que sentirlo."

Puerto Rico its sites and the culture are my greatest influence. I was born in Brooklyn, New York, the great city of many tall grey buildings that cast cool shades and shadows. When I was 12 years old, we moved to Puerto Rico. This was a total contrast! It was like someone turned on the [...]
