Jose Pellegrin Romero – Artist of the Month

It is undeniable that a young talent develops better when nurtured with the love and unconditional support of a family wise enough to guide it to a positive goal.  This is reflected in the talent and ease in which this remarkable boy moves in the artistic world and whom we are pleased to appoint as our Artist of the Month,  Jose Pellegrin Romero.

I have been personally captivated by his personal charm and intelligence, and after seeing the wonderful support he has received from his family, I have asked Norma Cortes Caballero, our Artist of the Month of December, to write us a few lines with her special thoughts and feelings towards this special boy, her grandson.

Congratulations José, keep up the good work.  You have what it takes!  >>> Click here to see José´s Gallery

Friends, remember him, José Pellegrin Romero, our Artist of the Month.

“Who is José Pellegrin Romero?

He is the third of  my eight grandchildren and has always shown his taste for the fine arts besides being a good friend of Nature as he cares and nurtures over 80 different species of orchids.

He was born and bred among brushes, easels, paints and artists, as he has been by my side for a great part of his life as we both enjoy being together and painting in my studio.  He loves to experiment, feel and combine any amount of materials.

He has always shown a special sensitivity towards color and through it he develops any project that goes through his mind.  He loves the work of Leonardo Nierman and in sculpture he is impressed by the work of Sergio Bustamante and Edna Ferrigno.  Whatever he can learn about art absorbs him in a way that I love.

I can say that I am grateful to life for the privilege of living with a human being who has taught me that when you think that there is nothing more, he has shown me that there are no impossibles”.
