Our relationship with Kathleen and her art has grown into something very special. What began with discovering her colorful Architectural Whimsy paintings of Puerto Vallarta soon grew into collecting pieces from her Identity & Inclusion series as well.
We now live with several of Kathleen’s male figurative paintings, and each one has its own personality, energy, and story. There is something about her figures that is both powerful and vulnerable, and they continue to reveal something new the longer we live with them.
Kathleen’s work is bold, joyful, sometimes provocative, and always unmistakably hers. Just as importantly, getting to know the artist behind the paintings has made collecting them even more meaningful.
Our Kathleen Carrillo collection has grown to several paintings—and judging from experience, we probably shouldn’t say we’re finished yet!

Kathleen Carrillo Galleries is one of those places in Puerto Vallarta where you walk in planning to “just take a look” and somehow find yourself imagining which wall in your home needs a new painting.
Kathleen has created a gallery that is colorful, sophisticated, welcoming, and, much like Kathleen herself, full of personality. As someone in real estate, I spend a lot of time thinking about what makes a home memorable, and original art can completely transform a space. Kathleen’s work does exactly that.
Her gallery is filled with everything from her wonderfully whimsical architectural paintings of Puerto Vallarta to expressive figurative work, florals, and contemporary abstract pieces. There is always something new to discover, and Kathleen makes visiting the gallery fun rather than intimidating.
Fair warning: coming in “just to browse” may be hazardous to your empty walls!

Kathleen is a wonderfully prolific, creative artist. Happy to call her my friend I have assisted her in the Puerto Vallarta Gallery since 2015. From my point of view when she paints she is mesmerized placing her soul into her art, which carries her emotions. It can make you think or take you places. At a glance you can feel the profound joy and love in her work. Jill Davis

Working with Kathleen and Kerry at the gallery is always inspiring and never boring! I love being part of the gallery and working to create a welcoming experience for everyone who walks through the door.Kathleen is incredibly generous about sharing her knowledge, and I am constantly learning something new about art, collectors, creativity, and running a gallery.
