I was floored this morning to discover a Comment by Manuel Salas left on yesterday's posting about Belleza's black dress. Manuel Salas is the artist behind the Day of the Dead ladies that Tapestry Fair has reproduced on needlepoint canvas. He said some very nice things, which were appreciated, and told me that more of his artwork can be seen on his Facebook page. If you have a Facebook account, just type in "Manuel Salas" and he'll pop up. Then you can click on his Photo albums and see a few photos of his work. I think the photograph of Lupe is of the needlepoint version Peggi stitched in classes with Tony Minieri.
Here's the article with the comment, just so you don't have to hunt. Isn't it amazing how the Internet brings people who ordinarily would never meet together?
