Only two artisans have mastered the ability to paint wings. Isabel has been able to increase the number of full-time employees by 80% since working for Tulia's. Most are single-parent (moms & dads) heads of households. New designs are co-created with Karen, Isabel and her partner Federico. Tulia's is proud to support the continued growth of Isabel's workshop.
