Welcome to La Corua, home of Digital Art for the Sonoran Heart.
I am an artist devoted to exclusive works of art, and to honoring life in the Arizona Borderlands. Rooted in a vanishing Sonoran folktale, La Corua brings our historical heritage alive and breathes life into community and culture. I retired from business as La Corua in 2014, but I still enjoy creating beautiful art and powerful graphics through this mythical namesake.
My work is all digital, created on my Mac. I paint with my mouse. I chose digital because of its versatility and infinite potential.

La Loba
A visual interpretation of the ancient myth of La Loba, Wolf Woman / La Que Sabe, The One Who Knows.
They say she lives among the rotten granite slopes in Tarahumara Indian territory. They say she is buried outside Phoenix near a well. She is said to have been traveling south to Monte Alban in a burnt out car with the back window shot out. She is said to stand by the highway near El Paso, or ride shotgun with truckers to Morelia, Mexico, or that she has been sighted walking to to market above Oaxaca with strangely formed boughs of firewood on her back. She is called by many names: La Huesera, Bone Woman, La Trapera, The Gatherer, and La Loba, Wolf Woman.
