I've studied in Argentina, California, Hong Kong, and France. I'm a native Spanish speaker, Professor of English, student of Cantonese Chinese and French. I'm a retired educator with the California public school system. Although I've drawn and painted all my life as a hobby, I've become a professional artist-painter since 2005. I use and have won awards in all media: pastel, oil, acrylic and watercolor. Learn more about my art and travels by visiting my Blog: http://minnievalero.blogspot.com
