The Stories Behind the Art

Welcome to The Story behind the art, the dedicated space where we unfold the story, emotion, and creative journey behind every piece in the Mayacoa archive.

This blog is a key, an intimate look into my process. Each week, we dive deep into a single work from the IMAGINARIUM paintings, ESTAMPA patterns, or MOMENTS illustrations, sharing the initial spark of inspiration, the unexpected challenges, and the personal narrative that brought it to life.

Whether I’m revealing the real-life memory that inspired an abstract portrait, detailing the global travel that shaped a textile palette, or sharing the specific feeling of movement captured in a fashion sketch, this content provides the context that transforms observation into art. Follow along to understand not just what was created, but why.
