La Ofrenda by Ester Hernandez is one of the first images of Chicano art I saw back when I was in high school. I finally got to see one of the original 1988 prints today! Estampas de la Raza show opening up at the museum on March 25.

Cocktails and musings on 19th century novels. Dan and I are super fun at parties.

I remember walking into NMMA's galleries this past summer during our apartment hunting trip and being stunned by this painting. I've grown up with this image reproduced in tattoos, painted car hoods, the wall calendars you're given at carnicerias and most
