"....and the thing got done!"

2/27/2014

What an emotional day! To see the ceiling scraped, repaired, patched and painted............wow! This has been the day I've waited for. Seeing the ceiling transformed literally led me to tears. This has been a trip I never would have imagined possible just a year ago. Today the dream has become reality. I am filled with pride and with humility knowing that so many people took part in helping me to make Inspiration Studios come to life. Tomorrow we finalize plans for Saturday's Grand Opening. The birthday of Inspiration Studios will be an event to be long remembered. -Erico

Erico Ortiz

Erico Ortiz was born in Cayey, Puerto Rico and was raised in Milwaukee. He earned his undergraduate degree at Marquette University (Spanish Education) and a Masters Degree from UW-Milwaukee (Administrative Leadership). After working for Milwaukee Public Schools (teacher, administrator) for 33 years, it was time for retirement and a new direction.
Erico has worked with several community theatre companies, both on stage and behind the scenes, something he still enjoys today, and is a board member of the Village Playhouse. He plays guitar and can be found Sunday mornings directing the Spanish choir at St. Francis of Assisi Catholic Parish in Milwaukee.
Painting has become a passion since retirement in 2011, leading to the development of Erico's Gallery. Since then, he has delved into the arts world by becoming involved with Riverwest Artists Association and the Sheboygan Visual Artists. This latest venture, the purchase of an art gallery and performance space should prove to be exciting.
