Rodolfo Rios Garza
While self-taught, Rios Garza credits renowned Southwest artist Mel Casas,
and Peruvian artist, Francisco Grippa, as the biggest influences in his pursuit
of art. Grippa, in particular, was generous with his knowledge, his time, his
studio and his encouragement. It was this friendship that gave Rios Garza the
confidence to explore and express color, texture and composition on his own
terms.
