We work with Mayan artists from Guatemala. Thought you might enjoy this painting of the back of a native girl and hummingbirds by Henry Mendez. Hummingbirds have special significance in the Mayan cosmology. See more examples of the art on our website... GuateMaya Art and Culture Connection

Antigua Guatemala..one of my favorite towns in Mexico, Central America. I can just spend hours walking around taking in the colors, sounds, people... destroyed by earthquakes last century and now a fabulous mix of ruins and classic colonial architecture.

Disfrutando my last day here in Guatemala...a refuge of sanity, beauty, good humor, friendliness and incredible artistic talent, you know one of those "sh_ t hole" countries... with an incredibly rich culture and history, and an amazing open mindedness and open heartedness
