Lourdes Rivera, -LULU, born in San Juan, Puerto Rico is a Visual Artist best known for her bright color palette. Formally trained achieving a Master’s Degree in Architecture, LULU started oil painting impressionism landscape scenes. With her background that comes from her training during childhood from Master Artist Fran Cervoni, then, after completing her professional education at the School of Architecture, University of Puerto Rico, and practicing her career, LULU continued painting, and more active lately has matured unique Artwork in her own expression. The Design Fundamentals during her Architecture studies give cohesion to her work, as she states: “can’t conceive an Artwork without sense or meaning”. Each of her works has a Concept that always starts in her head, and keeps evolving making research related to the representation of the subject. 

Lourdes Rivera, -LULU is active in San Juan, Puerto Rico, working diligently on expanding her technique and adding new and exciting elements to her work. Passionate about Painting, she has a hunger for growing in format developing her own style: the Impressionist Expressionism, in her undistinguishable colorful palette, which is her stamp and unequivocal mark. She has developed a very personal representative technique based on observation and on what the brain captures, (what she identifies as the brain's “interpretation templates”). So she tries to represent in her Work what the eye and mind really grasp from life from around us all: a kind of a compromise between the “infinite dimension of the mind interpretation” and the “finite physical reality”. Started exhibiting Individually and also Collectively; then selling Paintings and some of her Collectors have repeated purchasing (liking her among their favorites); participating in International online Art Contests; her technique and use of materials has also evolved from oil painting, to acrylics, mixed media; texture mediums, alcohol inks, resin, pastels, cheese cloth, etc.; and also works Figurative, Impressionism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art, and her “Impressionist Expressionism”, [or "Expressionist Impressionism"]; experiments with more media and bigger format. Gives much importance that the Work shows depth, and that the elements are shown three-dimensionally.
