Luis Berros (1970) is a Cuban-American who spent several years as an apprentice of the modern Cuban visual artist the late Lesver de Quiros, developing through the studio a style of oil and canvas and gaining a sensibility for color and composition.
Berros has been involved in Miami emerging urban mural arts since the 1980s and whose clean, warm children characters on canvas led to commission work as an official Walt Disney illustrator. His series “Children of Migration” on wood carries symbolism, yet embraces the same positive and motivating moods that have defined his red thread of creations.
Today he has become engrossed by the underlying 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 wonderful children. All of whom have a talent for mischief.
