- On the island there is a cemetery where people gather every year to remember their dead.
- People have been burying their love ones for many, many years.
- These pieces of folk art are hand carved with local wood (copal), acrylic paints, wire and glue.
- Mr. Pina works are a reminder of a very, very old custom that has been part of Mexico's reverence for their dead.
- Mr. Pina's pieces are one of a kind.
- Great gift for someone special or for your own collection.
