About our Artist: 'I'm Cristobal Ramirez and I was born near Lake Atitlan in 1971. I design and create beaded, crocheted and macram bracelets, which I began learning to create when I was seven years old. Setting up a workshop was my biggest adventure because I didn't have any funding. However, many people trusted me and wanted to work with me. It's been a pleasure to teach them, so that they can have a secure income. My path in life hasn't been easy, but I know that God's purpose is bigger than the adversities I've experienced. What I most enjoy is that art it has a spirit of freedom because it isn't limiting. I can express myself through designs, colors and it never goes out of style. I want to see my community prosper and be a stepping-stone for hardworking people. Together, we will continue this craft.'...
