Ramon
Angel Guadiana, the son of Mexican immigrants, was born in 1938.
Schooled in the Detroit School system, attended the Society
for Arts and Crafts (Now the Ceneter for Creative Studies) under
the tutelage of Guy Palazolla and Sarkis Sarkizian in the late
1950's. He also studied for two years at Michigan State University
Outreach Program at Pewabic Pottery.
His
mediums of choice are oils, acrylics and watercolors.
Although
his paintings may look symbolic, many are expressed metaphorically.
He considers it a style he calls fragmented, not cubist.

feel that my Hispanic heritage has given me a rich source of
