My favorite thing to purchase at Spanish Market can be found in the Children's Artist area. They are both
Retablo's and painted with natural pigments. The first piece, St.Francis, was created by a 15 year old artist and the smaller Virgin De Guadalupe was created by a 10 year old artist. I actually spied the St. Francis at the preview event on Friday evening and made it a point to search it out first thing yesterday morning.

Real neat, love the colours.
deux belles creations, bravo aux enfants (bien qu'a 15 ans, on est plus un enfant ;o)) )
Looks like a good buy !
nothing like art by youngsters
great purchase!
Oh very good choice indeed Randy.. I think it's wonderful to support young artists, these are going to look very good where ever you hang them :)
St. Francis is a favorite of mine and many.
Pretty darn good work for youngsters! I like the St. Francis one especially.
These are very nice Randy!
wow, very talented kids!
how cool! and so great you supported the young artists, too!
I like them both, Randy! Wouldn't have though that they were done by kids - talented kids they are.
Very nice as they are, but being created by children makes them all the more so.
Those are both just lovely but, I especially like St. Francis. There are some very talented youngsters represented there.
You picked some nice ones, Randy. These young artists are very talented.
Were you able to buy it or had someone else nabbed it before you got there? Wonderful shots, Randy. I find it so very difficult to get good photos at these markets because of the crowd and lighting.
Oops! I just saw your title; you got both retablos??
St Francis is the Saint I like reading the most from...
Good choice.
Both lovely, those kid are better than many adults around here!
Those are two talented kids!
Excellent choices, Randy!
So pretty. You made a couple of good purchases.
Great choice! St. Francis is one of my favorite Saints. The young artist who created this is quite talented!
What wonderful retablos. I especially love that the artists are kids.
I love what you bought.
Good choices, Randy. They are colorful.
It's so easy to see why you picked these two treasures as your purchases, Randy. They are lovely. Also, I've enjoyed catching up with some of your posts. So neat to see Kate!
Congrats, they are both fine!
Very nice! I can see why you like them. :)
Oh!
I love St.Francis...
It's a really great art!
