When Ignacio Garcia was a 4-year-old preschool student he would draw pictures of Spiderman’s face. It was easy to do, and he liked the attention. Nowadays, his artwork reflects border life, pop culture and the social changes currently sweeping the nation. It covers the surface of tall buildings and shows Garcia's decades of experience as an artist.
His work utilizes multiple mediums and spans the whole of Southwestern culture. Garcia can often be found—paintbrush in hand—crafting his next collection inside the Southern Arizona Arts and Cultural Alliance’s Catalyst Arts & Maker Space located in the Tucson Mall. |
