About Me
My Background
Liliflor was born and raised in Los Angeles, her inspiration comes from her upbringing, family, community and underground cultural movements. As a first generation Mexican American “Chicana” she navigated thru L.A’ art scene during the 80’s and 90’s hip hop movement. Graffiti subculture was a critical part in her development, inspiration and path towards a professional art and educational career. Liliflor hones her artistic ability to create vital images on canvas and walls that are representative of Angelinos. She is a cultural art educator championing youth in the arts, using art as a tool for education, cultural awareness, civic engagement, healing and transformation.
Lilia’s strength lies in her bold approach in integrating Nahuatl cosmology aesthetic experimentation. She brings knowledge of her indigenous roots to bear in her work that dignifies the everyday people of Los Angeles. Her artwork weaves various subjects such as spiritual, urban environments, women, children, indigenous cosmology and culture. Aesthetically Lilia’s work reproduces familiar visual symbols and iconography, that enables her to create a composition of multilayered visuals and storytelling. The themes in her fine art and murals are combinations of ideas inspired by the communities she serves, as an artist, muralist and educator. The lively color schemes bind the iconography with the subject matter and composition.
My Medium
I use many different mediums, aerosol, acrylics, sharpie ink, and pastels. I believe that working in a single medium is restrictive to my artistic process. Each idea manifests in its own individual style. People ask me whats your style? I say I'm an expressionist. I paint, draw, use various mixed media, I do altar and art installations, I love to use found objects and up cycle materials, I'm crafty with sewing, I design and make jewelry, as well as make costumes or regalia. I also perform, write, sing and like making funny memes and videos.
My Inspiration
I enjoy gardening, indigenous healing modalities creating healing spaces for women of color, reading, writing, living with the moon cycles and spending time with family. In my spare time I love hiking and biking. Many of my pieces are directly influenced by nature. I am interested in learning nahuatl cosmology. My work reflects indigenous iconography and contemporary images.

2020 Liliflor Art EXPANDING into 2021 UPDATE:
Checking in to make sure you all well and in good health. So all our plans have changed. Due to Covid 19 the world has taken a step back to reevaluate.
I have like many of my artists colleagues are making changes with this new world we are now living. I am now producing new art "Primavera Series" as I Quarantine and paint, sleep, research read, meditate, stretch and try to make sense of this, I realized I needed to mourn. The death of the old and the birth of something new, it has taken an emotional toll and at times I have felt uninspired. But now I have come in to my self and am reevaluating my journey. I m going to ad something new to my artistic creations I dont know what its going to be but it will be incredible and satisfying to my soul. So heres to our Mother Earth healing herself a bit. She heals and we heal. I send my well wishes of health and happiness to you and your family.
Con Amor y Carino,
Liliflor (Lilia Ramirez)
From Last year 2019:
As some of you know I have been dealing with some medical issues. I have been slow in the last 2 years but I have never stopped. I did take time to do some much needed self care. During this time I sketched and also painted when ever I could. I wrote my intentions and visualized my growth as a creative artist.
Plans to expand in 2021 will include:
1) A yearly art calendar
2) An organizer planner book with my art illustrations.
3) Certified Color Therapist (I will be offering zoom consultations)
4) Use color and visuals for womb healing (new Line of clothing and art Diosa
5) Art and Healing Workshops (Sign up link in my IG bio or copy and paste on your browser www.flow.page/liliflor )
I have been learning how to make it happen in the last 2 years and almost done with my goals to make it a reality.
Thank you for your support and encouragement.
