Leno Morfin was born July 10, 1954, in a little village of the Sierra Madre in Mexico. At the age of sixteen, his family immigrated to the United States. In 1994, Mr. Louis Durot discovered Leno`s art work in Chicago. Since then Leno has been exhibiting his paintings throughout the US and the world, in countries like China, France, Germany and Mexico among others.

The expo at los Mangos Public Library invited to discover a new planet of dreams hidden into the powerful paintings. After a few smaller shows during the rainy season Leno left his public astonished at the colorful expo “Pasión por Vivir” in De Santos club where the passionate art of painting and gourmet was combined and the artist himself was got to know as “the man who paints as he loves, loves as he cooks and cooks as he paints”.
