About the Artwork

Piñatas, this is one of the skills I developed when I learned how to make them at age 12. I chose this story because I make piñatas to sell, and thanks to that, I always have some income. It’s something I really love to do. I am making a piñata that was ordered for a birthday party. I’m in the living room of my house. I make piñatas based on the design or theme that people ask for. I use my free time to work on them so it doesn’t interfere with my studies.

My family is united and always support each other. I like doing crafts. I don’t like when people help me with piñata-making because I’m very detail-oriented, and if someone helps, I feel it won’t come out right. My goal is to graduate this year as a Bilingual Intercultural Early Childhood Education teacher and continue with university studies.
