I am so happy with the pieces of art purchased from Esteban Hernandez! Everything is quality made and does not disappoint!! Each item is crafted with care and the bright vibrant colors that are painted on the turtle are so detailed. Thank you very much!

I knew as soon as I saw this treasure I had to buy it! -- Painted with the wisdom of turtles (just one symbolism for turtles). Now they also have available a blue bull with fish! So tempting! The painting details and carving of the bull are just incredible. Perfection! I am always in awe when I receive these pieces from Zeny and Reyna. So happy to see that more of their artworks are available here on Novica.
