BETSISANTOS

Growing up as a first-generation Latina in Los Angeles, I have always been inspired by street art, graffiti, dance and my Honduran culture. Coming from a family of immigrants, I incorporate the dualities of my life experiences into my art. Living in LA has exposed me to a slew of diverse folks and interesting cultures. The accessibility to China town, Korea town, or little Armenia has allowed a glimpse of their culture and art. These influences often sneak their way into my art whether it is by the colors, the artistic styles or simply the energy. Expression through any art form is something that has always been my natural inclination - to communicate thoughts, feelings, and opinions.
