ROSA CHAVEZ
Ever since I was a young girl, the love for colors grew inside me. Along with my expressions, which from my early works formed me into the artist that I am today. My early life as a young girl and my long walks through beautiful nature settings gave me the natural talent, which I now express in my painting. My studies in the university gave me a better focus and projection for my personal life. Throughout my studies, I achieved various recognition, which has helped me add a better impulse to my paintings. I have displayed my work in different galleries and museums. I like to keep in contact with my customers and that makes me feel good. I will always express the best of me through the creations of my paintings.
LEON F. RUIZ
My grandfather, Felipe Ruiz, was a great painter who painted religious murals. He always wished to have grandchildren who would follow in his foot steps, as great artists. Here in America, Felipe Ruiz showed me all the tricks he could, by explaining in great detail how to make a landscape look like heaven on earth. I guess you can say he was one of my greatest influences for becoming an artist. Most of my ancestors are from the very southern part of Spain, where the air is pure and the scenery is breathtaking. It has a way of making you believe you are part of a maturalists fairytale. Its nature beauty brings you endless inspiration, and above all, its colors give you the energy to paint for the rest of your life. Now in America with studies of Architecture and Engineer and Fine Arts, I learned more into the art career because of my necessity of having to paint it's a necessity more than anything. Painting is my passion. It is amazes me that a white canvas can become anything that you desire, with just a bit of work and imagination. The union with the artist Rosa Chavez and the work of art made by both of us through the years has become an important influence in our careers.
