Las Leyendas

Marco A. Vasquez Espinoza

Refran: "Ancient stories being passed down from person to person improving its fear."


Card Description: none


Student Biography: My name is Marco Antonio Vasquez E. I was born in  Salinas, California. I am the eldest son in my family and  a senior at Santa Maria High School. After high school I  hope to go to UCLA or UC Santa Cruz in which I will  major in art and I will be first generation in my family to  go to a university.  Through my artwork I want to give the people  the same bone chilling experience just the same as how a  person would feel when they see a ghost. “Ancient stories  being passed down from person to person improving its  fear.” My refran helps me support this experience because  just reading it makes you think how true this is since the  legends we have now are scarier than how they used to  be. In my artwork I made a dark theme in which the only  source of light was a candle. There is a person standing in  front of a big ancient book that he has found deep in an  unknown cave. The book has all the Legends and Myths  told today written in detail as if the people from the past  predicted the future.
