CUBAN MUSIC BONGOSEROS & CARNIVAL DANCERS

Cuban Themes and Subjects .... hold a special place in my artistic vision,
since Cuba was my place of birth and its culture cradled me from my
childhood with its music, color, and joy. Some of these images were inspired
in the music of famed RUMBA musician Xavier Cugat.
