WHY COLLECT ORIGINAL ART

Every art purchase begins with a conversation. Original art is collected because it resonates on a deeply personal level, becoming part of your story and your legacy.

ORIGINAL ART reflects how you see the world, what inspires you, and what you choose to surround yourself with each day. The art you live with becomes a quiet language, expressing who you are and what you value without a single word. Kathleen Carrillo’s collections explore the balance of strength and vulnerability within the human figure, the poetic energy of architectural forms, the sensual rhythms of nature, and intuitive abstract compositions. Influenced by a life shaped through multiple cultural perspectives, her work reveals layered narratives of identity, connection, and belonging. Collect with intention, live with meaning.

A Conversation With Petit Joys

Puerto Vallarta is often descried through its sunsets beaches, and ocean views. But some of its deepest beauty lives in the people who create here.

For our newest Petit Notes Feature, we sat down with artist Kathleen Carrillo, whose work and gallery in the Romantic Zone invite visitors to see the city more slowly.

Kathleen speaks about identity, art, memory, the creative spirit of Puerto Vallarta, and the kind of beauty she calls "Gritty Elegance". She also shares why the city's art walks, from Centro Historico to the Southside Shuffle in the Romantic Zone, offer one of the most meaningful ways to experience Vallarta Beyond the postcard.

This is a conversation about art, yes. But more than that, it is about looking closer. Read the full interview on Petit Notes
