René Romero Schuler est une artiste autodidacte. En 1994, elle reçoit à ce titre la mention d'honneur du DAP Fund Houston. Elle vit et travaille entre Chicago (IL) et Carmel (CA) - États-Unis. Le travail de Schuler a fait l'objet de nombreuses expositions personnelles et a été inclus dans de nombreuses expositions de groupe dans des musées et des galeries du monde entier.
Le travail de René Romero Schuler, qui s'étend sur plus de vingt ans, comprend peintures et sculptures. Il est en relation directe avec le courant de la Bay Area figuration, où l'on retrouve les artistes David Park, Nathan Oliveira très influents dans l'oeuvre de Schuler tout comme Alberto Giacometti.
Les femmes que René Romero Schuler peint sont des autoportraits et le reflet des émotions humaines que l'artiste a vécues dans sa vie trop colorée. Son approche est personnelle mais universelle et essentiellement intime.
Ses peintures à l’huile où la matière première s’ exprime dans des couleurs profondes donnent corps à des silhouettes légèrement éthérées. L’arrière plan semble raconter les variations de l’âme de l’artiste.
Certaines de ses silhouettes semblent suspendues et franchissent, avec légéreté la ligne d’horizon. Comme déposées par enchantement, sur la terre. Elles semblent n’ être que de passage. On décèle leur attitude, leur pensée et pourtant aucune ligne n’est formelle, laissant libre cours à l’imaginaire d’une vie qui se projette délicatement.
