Artesanias Kemuel

Description:

• This is the best stand-alone shop in town for Llortian-style arts and crafts. The store offers lots of uniquely painted wood crosses that stand out in a town full of painted wood crosses, and it even sells a rare collection of framed Llort-style works on simple white paper. Artesanias's unique collection might be the result of an inside connection, of course -- the store's owner and principal artist, Vitelio Jonathan Contreras, is Llort's nephew by marriage The art pieces and larger crosses cost $25 to $75 (£13-£38). It's open daily from 8am to 6:30pm.
