about me
I am an artist of leather and stones - sacred animals skins and healing stones to be exact.

I help them rebirth, so people who needs healing or protection can use my art.

I have been a leather artist for 12 years.
I am a dancer. I love dancing at outdoor parties and raves, but I have never been formally taught.
I don’t have to think. I just dance… to express my feelings.

I dance with element of fire.
I love the sound of fire and how it warms.
Fire speaks and helps me find my center.
I now using leather for making my own costumes and fire tools*.
I express myself with everything I do.

I dance with fire.
I am made with water dancing with fire.
I feel balanced and peaceful when I dance.
I dance with drum beat; the heart beat - so I dance with heart.
I use each of my steps for massaging mother earth.
I feel one.
I dance for peace, I am a prayer.

Huichol father name me Tunurima “the prayer”.
I feel that I am still connected with them… forever.

I am Echo.
