Who s Madonna

It’s Monday already and I don’t have any coffee at home. I'm off to Trader Joes to buy a little ‘Cup of Joes.’

Over the weekend, I hiked near the Hollywood sign with my sister Blanca and my godson Michael; my legs are feeling the soreness. When I mentioned that Madonna used to live in the area, my 12-year old godson replied, “Who’s Madonna?” It was strange hearing that question. “Who’s Madonna!?” I didn’t really bother explaining; what would I say that would make sense. That along with Cher, she is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, gay icon out there! Over the years, I have been a fan, though not a fanatic; I have seen her in concert twice. And if I could have dinner with a table of any 10 people, living or gone, she would definitely be sitting at my table.

The piece here is titled “Burning Prayers.” Madonna’s Like a Prayer Video inspires it. It’s my favorite Madonna song. Hearing my godson ask that question, inspired me to do more pieces. Though I have so much to do today for an upcoming art show in June, I will get some pieces started.

Who’s Madonna?!

Have a beautiful week ahead, express yourself!
