If you do an image search on
the Internet for "Chicano" you will get back photographs of
lowriders, gang members and tattoos. Essentially stereotypes. I see the Chicano
experience much more broadly than that. I have captured images that range from
portraits, events, infrastructure and landscapes. My reality and my home.
This duotone photograph of Fort Worth, Texas' Trinity River was taken last year. Originally in color, I
transformed the image into various subtle black and white and sepia tones. Fort Worth has many rivers. This section of the Trinity River near downtown I find
especially beautiful.
The original image is 24x36
inches. I have downsized the image and made it available for download as a
letter size poster. The Adobe PDF can be printed via your home, office or
commercial printer (Office Depot, Costco, Target, etc.).
