NEPHEW OF JULIA DE BURGOS AT BORICUA COLLEGE IN MANHATTAN, NEW YORK BORICUAS at BORICUA Artist Joseph A. Burgos Jr. and Phyllis Sanfiorenzo. ESSAY AND PAINTINGS When I begin a painting, time comes to a halt and I'm deep in serenity with creativity; time and space do not exist, but every creative detail is transferred onto the canvas in some expressive way. The completion of my art work is a wakeup call into the world and I'm back with a clearer perception of everything around me. Every detail in the painting is an instant analysis. I do not hesitate to correct this and that with my paintbrush. I lean back and say, "This is great! Perhaps my painting has a unique expression in the art world, I want someone to see my work."
