As others have noted, the owner was very helpful and no pressure. After walking around the typical tourist Mexican art stores this gallery was a joy. There were a variety of mediums and some beautiful statues in addition to wall art. We bought a mask and a pottery candle holder to ship home and felt they were reasonably priced.
