Late muralist, and father of Veronica ‘Compton’ Wallace, Armando Campero, a native of Mexico, attended the San Carlos Academy of Art in Mexico City where he understudied with Diego Rivera. He came to America on a scholarship to study at the Fine Art School in Chicago, later traveling to New York and Paris.

He leaves behind a collection of political art, a mark in history through his murals, art and genius.

And who is Eliz?

She is one of a few female Tibetan Lama’s in the world. She studied Mahayana Buddhism under Tibetan Lama’s until she became a Lama herself; the ex-wife of Armando Campero, biological mother to Veronica “Compton” Wallace through first marriage for both Armando and Eliz, named through her Tibetan Mahayana Buddhism practice, Sonam Chotzum.
