“Flying Heart - So very beautiful”

This piece of artwork is just so beautiful, with incredible detail. The craftsmanship is breathtaking and the colors are brilliant. I had lived in Mexico 30 years ago while studying at the Instituto Allende (I was a student & graduated from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago 1989 and the Mexican study abroad program was through SAIC). It is a beautiful country with beautiful, gracious people. This piece helps me remember my time there.
