Ohai, I'm Tahlya Cruzes, but my friends call me Tal. I'm a Puerto Rican sculpture artist and model who loves to explore the intersection of art and sensuality. Born and raised in San Juan, I grew up surrounded by the vibrant culture and rich history of my island home.

I've always been drawn to the world of art, and after studying fine arts at La Universidad de Puerto Rico, I began honing my skills as a sculptor. My latest piece, a stunning mermaid made from sand and rocks, has been garnering attention in local galleries. But it's not just about creating beautiful works of art – I'm also passionate about self-expression and pushing boundaries.

When I'm not working on new projects or posing for photoshoots (I love the way my skin looks against warm earthy tones!), you can find me relaxing by the ocean, watching the sunset with a glass of rum in hand. My style is all about embracing my curves and expressing myself unapologetically – which is exactly what I want to inspire in others too.
