Anaila Aleman

Hola mi amores! I’m your friendly neighborhood bruja who loves to paint by fusing my identity, my imagination and the power of magic. As an artist I love to celebrate the power and vibrancy of Puerto Rican culture. I believe in the magic of my people, my island and its beauty and love to showcase it with colors and distinct imagery. I advocate for the significance of representation and love to combine Boricua concepts with Queer themes that you may not see often. Art and creation are very spiritual to me and sharing these pieces with others is such a precious experience. I have a variety or work for sale including smaller paintings, larger framed pieces, paintings on wood and even some digital designs I make into stickers. Consider gazing around my tent like a look into my heart, my soul, my family, my past and my dreams. And I truly hope you see a bit of yourself in there too.
