Artist's Description
Ricardo's career started with the painting entitled 'Dustpan' created in 1967. Named after his sister Martha who was instructed to sweep out the garage by her mother. She used the small masonite board with the start of a landscape that was sitting on a makeshift easel as a dustpan unable to find a regular dustpan, she didn't think anything about it being her brother's first painting.
