Born in Fort Collins, Colorado , Guadalupe began drawing as soon as he could pick up a pencil. He supported himself in construction while developing his artistic skills at night.
Guadalupe's break came when the late George Cherapov, a well known Russian Artist, employed him to assist his plein air classes in Vermont which afforded him the opportunity to focus on his artistic passion full time.
Guadalupe did not look back, and became an acclaimed member and recipient of numerous awards handed on from the Pastel Society of America and juried shows across the United States. His original oils are found in the finest homes and Corporations in America and Mexico.
Guadalupe's original art is created from images created from invitation only Elite photo shoots and Pow Wows. His ultimate goal is to engage the viewer into his paintings for their own experience.
