The Art of Brownsville

Monday, January 19, 2004

My name is Frank Diaz. I am Mayra's partner in this project. My mission is to encourage Brownsvillian interest in their own history through an entertainment medium like comics. For the moment I'm very interested in the life of Juan Cortina, and the founding of Brownsville as a post-Mexican-American War colony. This is going to be a challenge. I'm using my Drawing III class as time for this project and hope that my MAS 318L, Mexican American Culture, class as well as my own research, and conversations with Brownsville historians, will provide valuable insights.
Pain is imminent. But hopefully rewarding.
