Some Spurs fans rep their Silver & Black pride with the clothes they wear or on their cars, but one woman is literally saying it all with her eyes.

Erica Lopez is a San Antonio native living in Dallas. She said the Spurs' recent game against the Mavericks was part of the reason she decided to create a makeup look that has amassed the attention of thousands on Facebook and Instagram.

"So many people are already doing makeup, so I thought, 'let me do something different,'" she said.

The 23-year-old has created two San Antonio-inspired looks: a dark-toned one featuring the skyline and another, with the vintage Spurs "Fiesta" color scheme.

Lopez said each of her creations have received positive reactions across her social media pages. She said some have asked her to create makeup tutorials to help recreate her work.

Though she's not against the idea, Lopez, who has a 4-month-old daughter named Jolene, says she doesn't have the right equipment or time to produce videos like many YouTube makeup gurus.

She said the looks took about an hour-and-a-half and are usually done while her daughter is napping.

Lopez also works on a budget, she uses primarily drugstore-bought items. She uses e.l.f. cosmetics eyeliner, which ranges from $1 to $6, to draw out the designs.

Working on her makeup stirred up some homesickness for Lopez, who has been living away from the Alamo City for six years.

"I wish I was in San Antonio whenever I did it, so I could walk around and show it off," she said. "Once I go over there, I'm going to show it off."
