Meet The Artist Behind The Masterpiece
Julio Sanchez
Hola! I'm Julio Eugenio Sanchez Bernuy, born in the beautiful city of Huaraz. I lived there with my grandparents until I was nine, then moved to my uncle's house in Callao, where the schools were better. My uncle worked with wood and leather, and I learned my craft from him. When I was just 12, he let me begin finishing small pieces like leather trunks and jewelry boxes. I loved the work so much that I'd swipe pieces of leather from other people in the workshop to practice leather embossing on my own. When I was 16, my uncle began teaching me the art of tooled leather. He was a master craftsman. My work is a very delicate job, as it requires a lot of effort, dedication and especially, practice. I find motivation in my family.
