If you like any of the artwork you see, you can contact Jeshua (that's me *winks awkwardly*) at boifromipanema@gmail.com
Hi Jeshua! I am actually the one who purchased your chola at the Dia De Los Muertos event! If you want to get some finished pictures of her I would be glad to meet up with you somewhere! I was actually thinking about ordering my sister one for Christmas. Do you have a lot of the barbies left?
ReplyDeleteHi Jessica! It's awesome to hear from you! I hope you are enjoying your Lil Chola yo! I would Love to snap a few pics however I am out of the country currently, so perhaps when I return we can arrange something? As far as for your sister, I have may dolls still in my archive but I can always do something custom and have it shipped you if you so desire :)
