Raul Enmanuel - La Mesa: Masterful Abstract Art
This is a wonderful example of Enmanuel's command of the paper medium. His texture, compositions, and technical mastery continue to astound. This is recent work, and though his symbology tends toward the abstract, he has hinted that these paintings are representative of feminine, divine beings of a benevolent, and supportive nature. Much of his work employs the palm jungle as a basis for the profound symbology, and iconography of the work. There is great power in these paintings, and the forms, symbols, and figures in the end, compose these lovely abstract, tropical landscapes, that he has become known for. Though one can find points of reference that were inspired by the Latin Masters, the work has become entirely his own. There are several more images from this series available. This work is 17 x 17", and is mixed media on a rather fascinating, very thick, highly textured paper. Very unique work. They frame up beautifully. Enmanuel's work was prominently featured in the 4th season of the Fox Television's show "Prison Break". It was used to decorate the loft space in the show, and his work can be seen in a number of episodes. The origins of his iconography are in the early work of Wifredo Lam. One can see elements that are a reminder of this great artist's work. Though Enmanuel has used these elements as a point of inspiration, he has succeeded in making the work entirely his own. He has focused on Lam's early jungle work as a jumping off point, to create a body of symbols, and a language that depicts a reverence for Mother Nature, and his work has a power and intensity that is rarely found in contemporary art. We at MLA search for contemporary artists that have both conceptual genius, and technical mastery. A combination of qualities rarely found today, but present in abundance in the work of this brilliant artist. Enmanuel was selected to create two huge murals in Cuba. One is a 40 ft. mural at the Railway Station in Santiago, and the other is a 30 ft. mural in the lobby of the Melia Cohiba, which is the top hotel in Eastern Cuba. These are both extremely prestigious projects, and have placed this great artist in an important historical context. We have been in business for 20 years, and enjoy a very good feedback rating. We believe in, and offer outstanding customer service. MLA Gallery has other paintings by Enmanuel, as well as a large selection of paintings, graphics, sculptures, and drawings by established Latin artists, and Latin Masters. Please inquire for many others.We can frame this rather nicely, with a black museum type moulding, floated on a platform over silk, for only $100 more, including packing and shipping.

This is a really great sunscreen. Leaves your skin moisturized and does not leave a white residue. I always wear sunscreen and this is a winner to me. Smells nice too.

Is this even real?!!!
Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Ok, I am a sunscreen fanatic and have tried most products on the market and I am SO impressed with this product!!! It is by far the best daily facial sunscreen I've used so far!!! I really can hardly believe it is a (non-nano) zinc base as it leave absolutely NO whitish finish.
First of all, it's hard to find a sunscreen with only physical UV blockers (zinc or titanium) without any added chemical blockers. There are a few (including the Korean skincare products) but they ALL leave a white film. This is the FIRST all zinc sunscreen that looks completely natural after application. I still have NO idea how they did this without using nano-zinc!!!
Second, the texture and finish are so light and non-greasy that I cannot tell that I put anything on my face. It's fantastic!!! It absorbs right in!! Granted, I do not have oily skin so I cannot speak for someone who does. It isn't drying but also not super moisturizing so if you have dry skin, you might want to use a heavier cream under this product.
Third, the smell is light and pleasant. i do not find it overwhelming or distracting. I rather like it.
The downsides are (1) it is not inexpensive at about $20/2 oz and (2) it is not sweat resistant (though it suppose that would come at a cost of a more greasy texture).
I love love love this sunscreen!!! I only started using it recently so I'll see if it really works well to protect my face from UV exposure... I'll update this later regarding the effectiveness as a sunscreen.
Thanks for a fantastic product!!!

no white cast, super moisturizing, dewy finish, citrus scent
Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Face, Size: 2 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I have a shelf of sunscreens. I am trying to find the perfect sunscreen for daily use on my face. I happen to be fair skinned, so if it happens to have a white cast, it isn't too noticeable. But still, I'd like to not even have to worry about it. I also would prefer not to use chemical sunscreens. I often use those on my body, but for my face which is more sensitive- the physical (mineral) sunscreens is better for me. There is NO white cast with this, so definitely fine for darker skin tones if you are looking for a physical sunscreen.
This sunscreen is nice. I hot days or days I know where I will be sweating a bit, I don't bother with my expensive skin care routine, since I am likely to sweat it off. This sunscreen offers some skin care goodies above and beyond non nano zinc oxide. So I feel like I am still doing something for my skin, including moisturizing it. According to description, it has antioxidant super plants:
--Juanilama: anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-oxidant (87% more than vitamin E) properties, and
--Fierillo: anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, skin healing, and antioxidant properties;
plus..
--Wakame Kelp: reinforce skin defenses again environment, etc
--Tazman Pepper: reduces skin inflammation and redness, and
--Arabica coffee oil: lubricates skin. regenerates hydrolipid barrier to promote hydration and skin repairing.
Smells energizing- like a punch of citrus fruit. It lingers for a little while then seems to dissipate. I can get it near my eyes and they don't get irritated. Kinda surprised it is a strong scent for something that is likely to go on the face.
Bottles says no synthetic colors, fragrances or unhealthy ingredients. "Fragrance" is vague here, and although maybe not synthetic, it should be cleared up as to what it is.
The company says in answering one of the questions that the fragrance comes from essential oils- if so, they should list the essential oils used. I imagine it is a citrus blend, but essential oils are different than just listing "fragrance". It would be helpful to see exact oils used. Then in another question answered, it was not mentioned that essential oils are used to create fragrance, but that it would be naturally occurring from some of the other ingredients. Which is it? If it is the latter, then the company would be doing themselves a favor by taking the word fragrance out of the ingredient list since not only would it be redundant to keep it in there it could scare off people who are avoiding "fragrance" as a listed ingredient. A product can have a scent due to other ingredients used that have a naturally occurring scent .. and and still be fragrance free. If it is a matter of it being from essential oils.. then that should be listed as well- for better or worse- but at least it is transparent information. Some people have strong reactions to essential oils on their face, whether from scent or from the activity they have. Some dont have reaction. Yet Some have strong reactions to "fragrance" as an added ingredient. Normally I see "fragrance" on a bottle and choose something else, as it typically depicts synthetic, and if it isn't synthetic then it doesn't need to be listed generically as fragrance, but instead specifically as to what the fragrance is derived from.
Anyway, I thought I would add that as I am sure there will be potential customers looking at the ingredient list and this may help them one way or another. I hope this review has been helpful to you. If I learn anything new, I will be sure to come back to update. Take care all :)
