A fourth generation Santa Fean, Gilberto Romero was brought up with Hispanic values and spent most of his childhood time with his family enjoying all that the outdoor environment of New Mexico has to offer. Knowing at a very young age he wanted to become an artist, Gilberto realized that his steady hands and good eye would shape his life.

By the age of 23, Gilberto had spent many hours working with established artists and came to realize how fortunate he is to be in Santa Fe with such talent. Gilberto found it easy to express himself in fabricated and bronze sculpture as well as custom-made fabricated and iron pieces commissioned for specific placement, such as entrance gates.

"Mother Nature and a close Hispanic family is reflected in my artwork,” says Romero. “My sculptures are fabricated because it allows me to produce a cleaner line than cast bronzes. The patinas are applied by my wife, Davery.

"I look forward to a life of making art and with a beautiful and supportive family by my side, I see no lack of inspiration," reflects Gilberto.

Pippin Meikle Fine Art is pleased to represent Gilberto Romero, whose sculptures and commissioned metal works are collected nationally.
