Visual Art – New York - NYC

My name is Cristina Lynn Acevedo and I am "The Avocado Artist" -long story short, it was a name pronunciation gone wrong too many times, and it stuck. I have been working for almost 6 years now in drawing and painting/mixed media, and am also an Art Teacher. Currently I hold a position as Art Director of school locations for the Boys & Girls Club of New Rochelle, while pursuing my MFA at City College. The content of my work is mainly focused on the subconscious and the innate feelings and desires present there, as an analysis of emotions and diving into one's "true self". Furthermore, although I am fluid with my drawing and painting, I love trying new mediums and techniques, and am always up for a new challenge!
