Luis Alvarez Roure

Luis Álvarez Roure (born 1976) is a Puerto Rican realist painter based in New Jersey. He is known for his figure paintings as with ease as his portraits of American public figures such as Philip Glass, Joshua Bell, Paul Volcker, Cándido Camero, Monsignor William Linder and Octavio Vázquez.
His strengths have been described as "his draftsmanship (...) taken directly from the paintings of similar to masters" and "the fellow feeling he so evidently feels later than his sitters" by Peter Trippi, editor-in-chief of Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine.
