My name is Luisa “LuLu” Padro and creating art, big and small is my life’s purpose. I began my current collection in 2012 and have painted over 100 cohesive paintings along with countless sketches. I mostly paint people embodying characteristics of those around me. I combine their unique personality with a little bit of myself and wind up with something which has been described as “vibrant, fun and urban”. I don’t feel the need to render realistically because the essence of someone is felt and can be understood in a simpler format; if a child can understand the message I am conveying then everyone will. Differences are my favorite part of our species. I believe that art has a way of subliminally affecting the viewer. So I make my art a little happy, using bright colors and themes; because maybe it’s like inception and they walk away with a very simple and profound idea of happiness, love or peace.
Commission me to create something special for your home art collection, or for a mural; I also custom paint shoes and other unique items as the perfect gift for your loved ones! More information and a full gallery of my work can be found on my website.
