Roberto Vazquez is a talented painter in his mid forties originally from Tlaquepaque and Guadalajara who now lives in Puerto Vallarta. His soft spoken and gentle nature obscures the fact that he was once a talented fighter training for Mexico’s Olympic boxing team. The same hands that now create with such sensitivity once broke noses and knocked opponents to the mat.He enrolled in classes at the school of the famous museum of that city, el Hospicio Cultural Cabanas. This training along with his lifelong interest in Mexico’s indigenous cultures helped to shape his painting style.

Humor might be considered to be a nearly constant element in Alfredo's work. He often paints angels, some of whom have traded in their wings for bikinis or tongas, and others who seem to be working on loosing their wings because of drinking or drug abuse.

His mother, aunt, brother and a first cousin are currently professional painters and his sister is a photographer, with his father having become an architect in Guadalajara where Brewster was raised.

At ninety years old and as the creator of seven monumental sculptures on permanent public display in Puerto Vallarta, it could be said that Ramiz Barquet is the artistic patriarch of the community. His first public sculpture, Nostalgia, was the second sculpture to be mounted on the Vallarta`s ocean promenade, the Malecon, when it was installed there in 1984.
