The Lorenzo Family is a prominent, long-standing family of painters from Guerrero, Mexico. The family is headed by Lucas Lorenzo, the originator of this painting tradition. His four sons: Aureliano, Jesus, Nicolas, and Santiago, and his daughters Carlota, Lizbeth, and Socorro are painters as well. His grandson Fernando also carries on the tradition and is the driving force behind their business. Using common materials such as acrylic paint on masonite, each member of the family incorporates their own hand in the artwork, either by outlining the initial drawing, applying color, or adoring each piece with customary Mexican patterns. Many of their works feature jaguars, skeletons, luchadors, mermaids, and other popular characters in Mexican culture. www.phillymagicgardens.org/the-lorenzo-family/ -
