Marta, also known as “Mimi” was born in Havana, Cuba and was exiled to the USA after the communist revolution. Since her early years, Mimi always had a passion for painting. After graduating from an Interior Decorating and Design School in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Mimi put her career on hold to become a full time “Mom” of three. Mimi decided to return to her love and passion of painting when her youngest child left to college, approximately 5 years ago. Ever since, she has taken workshops from Marc Chatov, Albert Handell, Sherrie McGraw and Anita Louise West. The artist has also studied under Nancy Honea, Deborah Ankrom Kepes, Carol Baxter Kirby, Marc Chatov, Tom Williams, and is currently studying under Jim Schell, Teena Stern and Kristopher Meadows. Her work is held in private collections throughout the United States and Europe.
