Wilfrido is a self-taught artist whose paintings take the viewer on an imaginative journey through folk scenes of people, pets, sea, and landscapes. He uses brilliant colors to create captivating scenes, sometimes with a sense of humor. This artist with a hopeless penchant for minute details came up with the term folk-realism to describe his unique style of blending the look of naive-art with realistic elements.

His passion for the arts started at a very young age. After earning a business degree, he managed the family textile and apparel business for over 20 years. He also designed the infant and children's wear lines including the original prints, embroideries, and appliqu�s, which have been sold in top department stores all over the United States and Europe.
