Lazaro was born in Cuba, and migrated to the states with his parents
and grandmother in the early seventies. He grew up in a mostly hispanic area of New Jersey. After high school, Lazaro joined
the military, and was stationed at FT. Bragg. After his enlistment, he decided to call Fayetteville home. To the dismay of
all his neighbors, he hasn't left yet. While very Americanized, he still holds his Cuban heritage close at heart. I
have never attended art school. I have taken some classes on graphic design at FTTC, and I had some amazing art teachers
while I was young. In high school I had a great sculpture teacher named Mr. Bendian. He was not only a teacher. He was
a true friend. By my senior year I pretty much ran the class while Mr. Bendian drank coffee, smoked cigarrettes, and did his paperwork.
Everything I touch, artistically, has his name on it. Another important influence in my life is Mr. Crabtree. He
taught me how to paint correctly. He is also there guiding my every brush stroke. Whenever I smell the sweet aroma
of linseed oil and paint, I can't help but to be swept back in time when these two men sculpted and colored
my soul. My interest in art caused me to read everything I could find on the artists I love, and the history
of art since cave paintings. Technically, I am practicing the oldest profession in the world...painting on
walls! I remember when I was in second and third grade. The PBS station would show a painting in between Sesame
Street and the Electric Company. They would talk about these paintings and the artist who painted them. To this
day, I remember all of the things they talked about. PS....
I love my mother like everyone should, but now I get paid to do what I used to get my ass whipped for doing as a kid!
Seriously, I wrote on everything! Love you Mom.

- Istrive for beauty and perfection.
- The paints I use are durable, and clean up with water. Chemicals are never used.
- Finished surface can be easily cleaned with a damp towel.
- Like other artists, I want to leave a mark on something. Murals and faux painting are a great way for me
to do that, and to make people happy.
