Both Abasolo sisters were born in the city of Puebla de los Angeles in the early 20th Century. Concepcion was two years older than Ausencia.

In their childhood, the sisters enjoyed holidays at their maternal grandmother’s home, Doña Matilde Maravilla de Mundo, who spent her free time painting.

When grade school was over, both of them considered devoting themselves to the study of fine arts.

The practice of copying lithographs by the French painter and drawer Bernard-Romain Julien was an integral part of the essential academic training at that time.

Since Concepcion refused to get married, she traveled to New York for collaborating in the making of murals at a library. Nothing else is known after that.
