ROBERTO TERRONES
Roberto was born and raised in the Boston area, and has been making art since he was old enough to hold a magic marker. He and his sister were brought up by a single mother who worked as a waitress for the majority of their childhood. Despite that, she was able to enroll him in art classes outside of the regular public school system, by simply budgeting well – a skill Roberto has yet to learn. Since then, art has been one of the only things able to hold his interest, be it drawing, painting, photography, or film making. Roberto holds a bachelor’s degree in fine art, with a concentration in graphic design. He is currently the head photographer at Shoes.com.
