“Spirit is a must-read for anyone who cares about San Antonio, its arts community, and the city’s deep Mexican roots… a compelling account of a great artist who rose from modest circumstances on the city’s West Side and overcame extraordinary adversity to create art and build a legacy that will live on for generations.”

—Robert Rivard, author of Trail of Feathers: Searching for Philip True; founder of the Rivard Report (now San Antonio Report).

“Trevino has been painting for more than fifty years and fortunately Anthony Head’s publication, Spirit: The Life and Art of Jesse Treviño, provides us with a fuller account of Trevino’s remarkable life.”

—Dr. Ricardo Romo, historian, former president of the University of Texas, San Antonio
