Iggysart comes from the personal name of an artists; IGNACIO, IGGY IS SHORT FOR. Since I was five years old (now 54), I had the vision and determination to do something that was within my reach that will impact my future generations. At the age of five I did cut the upper part of my left hand, where the index finger is attached to the hand. I was trying to shape a piece of wood. Later on at age of twelve, I was doing and selling hats and windows drapery, I'd made of something called (RABO DE ZORRA). It is a long stick-like with a fox tail-like at the end. By late teens and early twenty, I did a reasonable amount of writing, poetry, essays and even a 160 page story. by late thirty I started doing lite drawing and watercolors, then, oil painting. So far I have accumulated about 120 paintings. My deepest feelings though, are concentrating on humanity. After growing up under a dictatorship of Trujillo, in Dominican Republic. And seeing first hand how the majority of the people are controlled and abused by their government, I could not help myself, and started observing the overall picture of humanity/ In observing nature in general, one can appreciate the fact that in nature, animals only fight when provoked or on self defense and not using any arms or other means to cause harm.
