Luis Berros' art will be presented at a reception at the Blu Moon Studio tonight, November 5, for Gallery Walk.This will be the first public viewing of Luis's collective works, and I am thrilled to be helping to launch what promises to be a fantastic and successful journey .
Luis Berros is a lifelong "semi-native" of South Florida, having been born in Jersey City, NJ before moving with his family to Miami as a child. When he demonstrated ability and an interest in art his parents brought him to an art teacher in an effort to channel his energy away from his other talent, mischief.
Spending several years as a student in Lesver de Quiros' studio he developed his skill working with oil and canvas and gained a sensibility for color, composition and the undeniable power of fine art.
In high school Luis was a student of Eric Jenkins at Miami Jackson Senior High, a teacher whose influence still flows in the work he is now creating. Finding an outlet for his creativity, and a welcoming community in the street art clubs of South Florida in the early 1980's, Luis experienced firsthand the power of art without limits.
Today he has become engrossed by the under lying narrative of his work, which is to accelerate fine art and street art along the same plane and document the collision.
When Luis isn't painting he is living, loving and laughing with his two children and his wonderful wife. All of whom have a talent for mischief.
The reception is from 7 to 10 pm at Blu Moon, 3444 Main Highway, top floor.
