Creato | Pupusera

Created during a Creato drawing session themed Food for the Soul, this illustration captures a pupusera enjoying a pupusa—a warm, familiar dish from El Salvador. It reflects a common yet cherished scene, full of comfort and cultural pride. The huipil she wears features linocut patterns from a Printmaking class at Seneca College, weaving personal history into traditional attire. Influenced by the vibrant styles of Fernando Llort and Muxxi, the colour palette brings the warmth and spirit of Central America to life. This piece is a quiet tribute to heritage, the joy of home-cooked food, and the everyday rituals that keep us close to our roots.
