Ladies of the Garden Series Taino Women mix media acrylic portrait painting
Taino people are part of my Puerto Rican heritage . The Taino people called (Borinquen) their name of Puerto Rico home for about 700 to 1000 years. Sadly in the early 1500s, the Spaniards arrived on the island and most of the Tainos were enslaved, and the women became wives for the soldiers. They contributed a great deal culturally and their contributions can be seen today in artwork, food and language. This women represents strength, beauty and wisdom and could also be a women from biblical times.
