Meet the Artisan

Daniel Franco Perez
When I was a little kid I felt curiosity to see the pieces that my parents with so much care and dedication elaborate. Now, I feel really proud that I became a great Artisan.
I thank God for the opportunity that he gave me, and for the ability that in my hands I carry. I ask him every day that he keeps on helping me in my work. I also thank my parents because they gave me his inheritance, the great heritage to become a great artisan. My secret is that the brushes that I use I made them with cat hair, turkey feathers and chia, the chia is used to create sisa a mixture used to blend natural dyes. I have participated in different contest both in my state and in my country, and thanks to God I been awarded in some of them. This is the reason why I want to give my precious family the opportunity to continue with this amazing trade.
I am also thankful for my wife, because she gives me the support, kind works and affirmation that I need on a daily bases. Every day, before the sun comes out I already start working on a creation, that`s how a part of my life begins and I hope that they keep on creating this contest that are a great help for us artisans.
