Chacha Squatch

Mariajuanita Guzman

This is a painting of my cousin Joshua riding a large dinosaur in Granger, Washington, USA. His nickname is Chacha Squatch. Joshua got this nickname because my uncle has a thick Spanish accent so the name Joshua became Chacha instead. According to Joshua's mother, he was always grouchy and he had a lot of hair as a child. My uncle said Joshua reminded him of a baby Sasquatch. Hence the name Chacha Squatch.
