Dolores Gomez-Bustillo is an “Artist to Watch”!
She has been my student for several years and she
is observant, hard-working, aggressive in her approach
to the canvas, dauntless in effort to overcome obstacles,
full of life and soul and spirit, radiant in dedication
to God and man, intuitive, cross-cultural, and bursting
with creativity. She knows her craft but is constantly
learning and seeking; her heart and soul are sitting
right out on her shoulder for all to see, yet she
has discretion. She is a wonderful balance between
the flesh and the soul – she will do well,
she will go far, she will prosper in all she does.
My suggestion to viewers of her work is “Buy”
while the prices are reasonable.
