Thinking Boldly Out of the Box

Yep, that's me. In my early years my parents gave sketchbooks with blank pages to me and my brother during our family long road trips. We would draw in these sketchbooks using our imagination. We were never given coloring books. These pages were filled with cartoon characters and other images from our imagination. I thank my parents for that. Drawing and writing in a sketchbook became a way of life for me especially when I travel. They are my diaries.
I love to be immersed in all the arts from drawing, printmaking, painting to ceramics and creating jewelry.

When I am working with a piece of paper, canvas, etc. I want to fill the area with "marks" that excite me. I like to be bold when creating my "marks" using charcoal and mixed media in describing a human form or a landscape. At first I work very fast using my whole body to create a rhythm. I look for relationships of my shapes to the surrounding shapes so that the background shapes and spaces are just as important. Thereafter I may add layers of mixed media to enhance the expressionistic tone of my work.

I am fortunate to have this opportunity to create. I am also more fortunate to have a wonderful daughter and son...they mean the world to me. I also am lucky to have a great bother who has helped me in this adventure! I also have a wonderful husband who is my "stabilizer", if that can ever be done!

I love to run, work out in the gym, swim, bike or just sit in the sun with my sketchbook and a glass of vino.

Briones is a native Texan and proud Latina who grew up on the U.S.-Mexico border. She is the daughter of teachers, who taught her the importance of education, hard work, and serving others—values that have defined her and which she now brings to the office of County Commissioner for Precinct 4.

Upon graduating from Harvard University, she began her career as an 8th and 10th-grade teacher at two of the lowest-income public schools in the country. She then attended Yale Law School, where she led the Latino Law Students’ public service initiatives and provided pro-bono assistance to victims of domestic abuse and juvenile offenders. Briones returned to Texas to practice law at Vinson & Elkins LLP, then served as General Counsel and Chief Operating Officer of the Laura & John Arnold Foundation, a major philanthropic nonprofit. She went on to become the Judge of Harris County Civil Court at Law No. 4. Judge Briones was the highest-rated Harris County Civil Court at Law Judge in the 2019 Houston Bar Association (HBA) Judicial Evaluation Poll and won the 2020 HBA Judicial Preference Poll. Briones also serves as an adjunct professor at the University of Houston Law Center.

She and her husband, Adán, live in Houston with their three daughters and worship at St. Ambrose Catholic Church.
