News From Argentina

 

Mariana De Marchi, our artist from Argentina, recently participated in a project against gender violence.  Please click the link below to see the YouTube video.  It's in Spanish, but you can easily figure out what's going on.  Mariana is the attractive young artist with long, brown hair with a purple tank-top on.
