This was my second trip to visit the Aguilar ceramic studio, and the second time I have photographed one of their beautiful home altars. Below are images of the Aquilar's ofrendas that I documented the year before.
Día de los Muertos Ofrenda. I love all of the baby Jesuses dressed in their knit caps.
 Día de los Muertos Ofrenda is more like a theatrical stage set

Beautiful Laurie, If I'm not mistaken, Josefina's son and his wife visit Santa Fe for a couple of months at a time to make clay sculpture in a little studio setup in Jackalope. I have seen them work and purchased some of their lovely pieces.
Wow wonderful altars. Thank you so much for stopping by my blog with kind words.
