Norax Ayala Research Paper

373 Words2 Pages

Today in the Dr. Maxine Merlino art gallery I was part of an interview with Artist Norax Ayala. She grew up in the Inland Empire, and recently moved to Long Beach for graduate school. She has always loved art, and she was always coloring when she was younger. She then moved on to watercolor painting, and then real painting when she got older. Her artwork now is inspired by what she cares about most, feminism. Norax cares for her partner, and cares for supporting her own views on gender politics. The artist that she is most inspired by is Fransisco De Goya who does etchings. Norax’s artwork in the gallery today was called “Her and I” and it took her about 2 weeks to complete. She created the etchings of the artwork using the method of screen
