Fred Lopez : Santa Fe Tin Work Artist

ART has been part of my life since I was young; my mother and aunt are artists. I use traditional techniques and sometimes I combine weaving and tinwork or reverse glass painting and tin work. As a jeweler I do gold and silver filigree jewelry and traditional silverwork.
