and I did it with him stand- ing, the feathers, the texture of the clothing, that was really a hard task to capture all of that, but I got second place in a contest I entered it in years ago."
Montijo said he enjoys painting oil canvases as well. "I did another project where I used delocks paper, burned the image, and then I air- brushed on top of it and that one was called Esperanza," he said.
"A woman bought it from
me, she loved it so much, she wanted to know more about my art, what other types of art I did, wanted to see my other art work."
Montijo also names each one of his pieces."As my paint- ing develops, I sit back and look at it, sometime's I'll have help from my wife to name it."
Montijo said he hasn't sculpted in a while, he feels that is where his passion is.
He also added that he is inspired by an artist named Richard MacDonald.
"His stuff is amazing," he said. MacDonald is known for human sculptures and is based in Pasadena, Ca.
