Chicago's warmer days, for most people, means opportunities to make new and happy memories. A few miles away, warmer weather means more violence and the ugliness of despair.

Drawing is a skill that needs constant honing, these portraits were done in 2016. I have always admired academic drawings and good draftsmanship; however, I’m an intuitive artist and academic instruction is not for me.

I love visiting cemeteries! It's a great place for drawing beçause it's so quiet and peaceful, and the residents mostly leave you alone…mostly!

For All We Know I-090222, charcoal, wax crayon and oil pastel on blue toned paper, 14 x 11"

“For all we know this may only be a dream
We come and go like ripples on a stream
For all we know tomorrow may never come

For all we know”

Hello Mastodon! I’m Roberto Balderas a self-taught queer artist from Mexico living in Chicago. I try to depict fragments of our shared human experience in my art dealing with the inherent otherness of my queer, brown immigrant, introverted self.
