Artist Frank Gonzales Even Turns Magazine Covers into Mexican Art

"I couldn't help myself," he said, "sorry M.I.A......well, it was going to get thrown anyway."

This is what he does with a sharpie and magazine cover. Wait until you see what he does with paint and a canvas. We'll be highlighting his work here soon. In the mean time, please visit his site and blog for his latest work. This was just too good not to pass on to the masses.

Enjoy

Welcome to True Mexican

Welcome to True Mexican. I hope that True Mexican can be a bridge of peace for these difficult times in Arizona. With the passage of SB 1070 it is my hope that even negative change can foster growth. We can either kick and scream our way through this roller coaster ride or find ways to enjoy the views and things we'll learn and places we'll see. For Mexican-Americans, Mexicans, Latinos, Hispanics, Chicanos or what ever term we choose, this is an important moment in time. It is a change maker, our moment to stand and be seen. It is our moment, as a people, to stand up for our civil rights. Whether we are a day laborer, a network engineer, we can be a part of change. Whether we are 100% Mexican, half, quarter, or have even one drop of this amazing blood; we are all affected by the ignorance, hate and fear this bill has ignited. Further more, we hope to embrace all cultures who are looking for a more peaceful existence that allows every person to feel pride in who they are. I don’t think we can look away any longer.
