Meet Miguel Strunk. Miguel is 18 years old and working on carrying on the family tradition of Straw Applique. This is a collaborative piece that he worked on with his grandfather. Listen to his grandfather talk about Miguel was so wonderful. You could just see the pride in his grandfathers face and here it in his voice.

That's pretty amazing. A fine young artist who will go far!
I just love Miguel's work. It's fantastic!
Carrying on is such an important curltural thing.
Such a proud tradition, see it in his eyes.
How wonderful that Miguel wants to continue the family tradition!
Beautiful portrait!
What a sweet photo! I wish that I had been savvy enough to go early on the first day so that I could have made a purchase from one of the young artists. Lovely piece he made with his grandfather!!
how very cool!
That is a very beautiful piece!
Ah a rare thing to see a member of the younger generation interested in carrying on age old tradition. Good on you kid.
Right attitude.
Beautiful work and handsome lad. I love seeing young people involved in art and tradition.
Randy this is a wonderful portrait shot, this young man is bursting with creativity, love the bit about his proud grandad, so nice..
Miguel looks proud of his work too. What a wonderful tradition to carry on.
I'm not familiar with straw applique - will have to google it. I think one could go crazy buying treasures at this market, Randy!
His grandfather would be proud of him!
I'm sure they are both proud of each other. He is a good and talented handsome guy. :)
I can't think of anything better than working with one's granddad to carry on traditions. Can you?
Continuing the family tradition, nice picture!
I had to look up straw appliqué. Very interesting.
The young man has a lot of charm. It will greatly help him as he navigates life.
"Straw applique" how wonderful! This guy is certainly having a lot of patience and skill.
Tradition should be a must.
Mr. Strunk is supremely talented!!
That's a beautiful piece of work.
