This print features a hand lettered quote by Dolores Huerta, civil rights and social justice leader and cofounder of the United Farm Workers Union.
Dolores Huerta has been working tirelessly in support of the rights of farmworkers for more than 65 years. She founded the United Farm Workers Union in 1962, alongside Cesar Chavez. Ms. Huerta has expanded her pursuit of justice to advocate for women’s rights, civil rights, and a more equitable society and has her own non profit to which Marcella donated the profits of her 2021 calendar.
Marcella had the pleasure to talk with Dolores Huerta on instagram live in 2020.

The Enjoy Every Sandwich design is based on a quote by the late rockstar Warren Zevon, who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and was given one year of life to live in 2002. During a David Letterman appearance, when asked if he had any advice for the rest of us now that he was aware of his own mortality, Zevon replied, "Enjoy every sandwich."
May we all live life to its fullest as Zevon explained so well in this famous moment in television history.

This print reads "
If I’m an advocate for anything it’s to move....Walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food." -Anthony Bourdain
All around the quote are detailed ink drawings of different types of footwear and dishes from all over the world.
My intention for this artwork is to honor and celebrate the life of Anthony Bourdain. The chef turned author and travel show host left a lasting impact on the culinary and travel world with curiosity, and unabashed honesty. Through his writing and TV shows, he focused on the exploration of culture, cuisine, and the human condition. He taught us about the world in a way that was never clear cut or absolute, and left us often asking more questions rather than providing answers.
A portion of the profits of this print go to support the work of DC Central Kitchen, an innovative social enterprise nonprofit, founded in 1989 by Robert Egger. Mr. Egger’s vision for addressing hunger turned the traditional “food bank” approach on its head, addressing the root causes of hunger and food insecurity using food as a tool for real change. He started by collecting food which would have been tossed out by restaurants, hotels, grocery stores and the like, turning it into healthy meals prepared by those same people who would ultimately be the receivers of the food. His “community kitchen” model spread to over 60 similar central kitchens across the US and to numerous college campuses to address food waste in dining halls and transform it into meals for the hungry.
