Ana María Quexel González

Her favorite aspects of being an artist at Multicolores involves drawing and narrating the stories of her creations, as well as combining colors.

She draws inspiration from her traditional costume and nature to extract designs and portray them in her embroideries.

At the beginning of her journey with Multicolores, she struggled to grasp the technique, but now she takes pride in the progress she has made and the new knowledge she acquires every day.

“For me, Multicolores represents strength, understanding, and support. It has helped me support my family, allowed me to work more, and provided training in drawing and color combinations.”
