By working directly with
the artists (as opposed to purchasing through a distributor), we
know that we are finding and selling the best pieces available.
We also know that the artist is receiving a fair price for his work
and that the customer is receiving a good value for his purchase.
In addition, we have the wonderful experience of communicating with
the artist, understanding his intentions and seeing the work that
goes into the creation of his art.
In addition to the satisfaction
of working with the artists, we have the satisfaction of working
with a wide range of customers, both those with an extensive knowledge
of Mexico and its traditional art and those who are new to the delights
of this world. We thrive on the wonderful feedback our customers
have given us.
We also have the satisfaction
of giving something back to Mexico — a portion of our sales
goes to fund worthy projects there. Last year we participated with
Rotary International in funding the purchase of much needed equipment
and supplies for a Senior Citizens’ Home in Tehuacan, Puebla.
We welcome your comments
and questions — please send us an e-mail.
About Our Name:
Both Nidia and Charles
are deeply connected to Mexico — Nidia through birth and Charles
through predilection — hence the name Nuestra Tierra, which
means “Our Land.”
We also chose the name
for its other meaning, “Our Earth,” because the works
of art we sell are made from natural materials by people who live
very close to the earth. The name “Nuestra Tierra,” reflects
the spirit of what we are trying to accomplish with our gallery.
