Painting under the name Zabeliz, Maricarmen Zabaleta began
working with watercolors during the 1960s. From there she experimented with oils and
acrylics, but returned to watercolor in the late 90s. In 2003, she studied watercolor
with fellow Monsoon artist, Fidel Garcia. Most recently she had worked with Juan Carlos

Zabeliz has been in numerous exhibitions, both group and solo, in the last two years. In 2006, she was group exhibitions at the Hotel Antigua Alqueria de Carrion in Atlixco Puebla, the National Watercolor Museum in Mexico City, and the show “Todos Santos” or “All Saints.” Her solo exhibitions include “Antigua Alquería de Carrión” at the Hotel Boutique and the Glass Museum in Monterrey. Zabeliz currently resides in Mexico.
As an artist, Zabeliz feels that her “inspiration is intangible to my mind... I just perceive and as I do, I express. Everything emerges in the path…I think a work of art will achieve its goal when it awakens a dialogue with one self's spirit.
“I love deeply what I do. I have always believed that love is and will be forever the only answer to everything.”
