Alma Flores combines hundreds of small squares to create a beautiful design on her pottery. She learned from Jorge Quintana, but has developed her own unique style. Every square is painted in the traditional manner using a hand crafted paint brush made of long strands of human hair and the pot is formed by hand as well.
