Flora Tejaxún Chuy

Her favorite aspects of being an artist at Multicolores involve drawing doves, creating stories, and designing. She takes pleasure in thoughtfully selecting colors to ensure they stand out in her work.

She draws inspiration from books, conversations with her colleagues, observations of everything around her, as well as from fairs and traditions.

Flora feels proud of having a good income; it has helped her with some household expenses and her child’s education.

“Multicolores is a great support. It has provided me with many opportunities and has allowed me to meet new people.”
