And that is what makes folk art wonderful- the sincere passion behind it.
Whenever one gets annoyed with organised religion and its leaders, one is reminded of the love and faith that is held by the everyday people at home. Living next to a small-town Catholic church we see this quite often (though not this kind of art).
I am a bookseller with about 20 years experience, having taken up the trade after retiring as a trial lawyer. I deal exclusively in books on Mexico & bullfighting. I am sole proprietor of my shop in Playas de Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. I am also the list owner for The Bibliophile Mailing List, an email discussion list of book dealers, collectors, librarians, & others interested in the book trade.
My unfulfilled ambitions are first, to play violin with such artistry as to make a Spanish Gypsy cry and second, to survive with grace in the arena with a full grown toro bravo.
