My name is
cynthia korzekwa. I was born in Texas. My childhood was greatly
influenced by our housekeeper. Her name was Fela. She was from Piedras
Negras. I grew up speaking Spanish, eating bean tacos and listening
to rancheras. Almost a Mexican. The first drawings I remember doing
were done in my mother's books. I did a series of scribbles in Webster's
dictionary. My mother wasn't impressed. I think I got into trouble.
But I kept drawing anyway. That is until I went to Catholic school.
There they had rules about everything. Even about drawing. Stuff like:
don't draw to the margin of the page, don't go out of the lines, don't
put pink next to red. All those rules made drawing a stress. Then I
grew up and realized that those rules weren't for me. They were for
somebody else.....Some people were born to be foreigners. I'm one of
them. I can't be homogenized. |
