Luisa & Patrick

div-1

Luisa works with watercolor and has worked on large scale painted mural projects, my true passion is creating mosaics, both large and small.

Patrick is a poet, fiction writer, and creative writing teacher published in over 70 journals and anthologies, in the United States, the UK, Ireland, and Israel.

From “Cuajimalpa, Good Friday Evening”

From “Tomorrow”

From “First Communion for the Children of the Undocumented”

we glide onto water in our sea-going soul, and head for home, for parts unknown.

From “Kashapiwi”
