Story Behind the Art:

Asunta Pelaez says, 'I have been dedicated to this art form since I was 17 years old. I realized that the more I practiced, the more this craft won me over, offering me tremendous gratification. Now I consider it a way of life. I create a variwty of beautiful mirrors, coasters, boxes and trays. For the designs and illustrations, I use India ink to produce the finer details and outlines. Finally for colors I use tempera paints and gilt. This whole process demands incredible patience and attention to detail. My designs are inspired by nature, and by traditional scenes from my town and region. I feel very proud of the works that I create, and I look forward to sharing them with more and more people around the world.'
