ABOUT THE COVER ARTISTWith an iconic style that The New York Times said, “exudes warmth, optimism and love,” Romero Britto is an international artist who uses vibrant, bold and colorful patterns to reflect his optimistic view of the world around him. His playful themes and hard-edged compositions, combined with his unshakable resolve and belief in his art, have given him worldwide recognition, with exhibitions in galleries and museums in over 100 countries. The artist’s pop sensibility has lent itself to collaborations with global brands such as Audi, Bentley, Coca-Cola, Walt Disney, Evian, Hublot, and Mattel, to name a few. Britto’s work evokes happiness and hope, using a visual language all its own.
