In 2016 I opened my first art studio in my childhood neighborhood of Boyle Heights in Los Angeles. During long hours in the studio I could always depend on this taco stand. 3 for 5$ De Carne Asada con todo/ Steak with everything, was what I always ordered. This is a portrait of Romeo. Romeo is the image of many immigrant folks who come to California for a better life. To work and be able to support their families here and back in their home countries. I wish him good health during this pandemic.

Francisco Palomares has used art to overcome the socioeconomic obstacles of his East LA neighborhood since his youth. He converted these disadvantages into opportunities in which he saw each street as visual narratives emanating the challenges and beauty of an ever-changing environment. As a young artist, he studied the fundamentals of drawing and painting. Francisco’s practice would allow him to train at Ryman Arts and earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts from California State University, Long Beach. He later flew to Florence, Italy and Guangzhou, China to study art. After his travels, he relocated his studio PalomaresBLVD, to his neighborhood of Boyle Heights. In this space, Palomares paints the clashing streets and diverse BLVD’s of the city’s urban landscape. PalomaresBLVD invites the viewer to take a walk in the shoes of the artist to understand—through the complex images documented in his paintings—what it truly means to work, live, and play in the City of LA.
