Centurion’s Master Restorer, Rosamaria Portillo, has lived and breathed art her whole life. She adores art and exudes the many skills to restore art properly. Born into a family of artists in Puebla, Mexico she grew up surrounded by art. Painting became the most important and liberating way to live and be truly happy. In her 20’s she married into another family of talented artists which further cemented her into the art world forever.
Her background in studying art restoration began in Mexico City under the guidance of Master Angel D’Marquez. Her experience was so invaluable that her talents begin to shine quickly. Master D’Marquez started to award her more important projects to restore such as sacred religious paintings from the 16th & 17th centuries that required delicate precision that few people are capable of.
Since leaving Puebla, Rosamaria has experienced restoring many different artwork projects for respected museums, artists, art collectors, and the thousands of clients over the years that are attached to their art for sentimental reasons and want to bring it back to its original quality.
Sharing her appreciation in preserving art in its original form and taking so much pride in her skills, Rosamaria is in her element when it comes to restoring art. It is in her belief that all types of art can be saved and preserved if done correctly.
