Teresa Gutierrez, President
I am an Artist from North Highlands, CA. Starting out as a portrait artist in my late teens, in the footsteps of my talented Mother. Putting my brushes down to raise my family in 1999 and picking them back up in 2011 as a single Mother to make ends meet. In 2013, I met Mural Artist Markos Egure, and was mentored on Murals and have now completed and donated my time on 15 murals in Sacramento, CA, & 1 in San Diego. I have owned and operated two art galleries in Downtown Sacramento and am now a Co-Founder of the Non- Profit 501c3 ARTners. I am also a 30 year retired Chief from the State of California. In my leisure, I also operate my own for profit business PinkStreet Art. My purpose as a non profit owner is to inspire! Inspiring artists and the community to be creative and to go for their dreams and never never give up!!
