About Haydee Romero
Haydee Romero was born in Chihuahua, Mexico. She was an only child. She was always very spoiled by her father, and loved to accompany him to their Ranch in Nombre De Dios, Chihuahua. She loved to feed the chickens, and pick fruit from the trees that bordered the river.
During school break, she would accompany her Mother to the Mountains in the Forest of Chihuahua. She has fond memories of the beautiful outdoors, the tall trees, and flowers. She enjoyed picking flowers from the fields, and walking amidst the breeze and scent of the pine trees.
Haydee has enjoyed sketching and coloring since a very young age. She discovered oil paintings at the age of 9 and has been painting ever since. She has never taken any painting or drawing classes. Everything she designs comes from her imagination. She loves bright cheerful colors as she portrays in her artwork. Children, Indians, Little Pueblos, and Churches are her specialty. It is a reminder of her childhood memories, and she hopes to share them with the world.
