We arrived and were given a quick little demonstration of the wood carving area, we then climbed some stair to watch the artesanas busy at work. One employee was painting a small guitar on a stand, she said it takes 3 days and 8 hours per day to finish that piece. There was an other employee painting small trees with a syringe full of paint, tiny dots in many colors.

I fell in love with hand painted Birkenstock sandals and yes I paid to much and yes I got them anyway.
