Story behind the art :Once upon a time there was a little girl with big black eyes and black， black hair which， when the sun went down， shone with blue undertones. That's why she was called Indigolocks. Indigolocks grew up surrounded by love and her father's teachings.Indigolocks had always wanted to go to school in Switzerland and when she was 11 years old her father took her to Europe where she could learn about other cultures and languages. Indigolocks learned that despite their differences， people there strive to work together， avoid wars， respect their different religious beliefs and above all， she became aware of the importance of speaking different languages in order to understand how people from other countries think. She also learned that in order to succeed， one must be organized， presentable， and on time. Indigolocks returned to El Salvador after 13 years， and about that time her father inherited a Hacienda. Indigolocks transformed the hacienda into an agricultural venture thus ensuring the welfare of those who worked there， as well as offering their customers healthier products with a richer taste and aroma. They began by planting indigo， sugar cane， pitaya fruit， cashews， ginger， bananas， terebinth， and more. Putting into practice her father's teachings， Indigolocks began to research what kind of products they could make with the plants they harvested， which would allow her to offer more jobs to people in the community so they may provide for their families， have a roof over their heads， and be able to send their children to school. Their star product became the indigo plant， from which they were able to make a dye. Since Indigolocks had studied how her Maya ancestors had used indigo to dye threads， she began to replicate many of the glyphs from the ancient temples and dyed the weaves with indigo. Now everyone working at the Hacienda knows how to obtain the blue dye from the green plant， and they have also learned how to craft different items which they then color with indigo. They also prepare banana sorbet， dehydrated banana slices， cashew and pitaya juices， cashew vinegar and wine， teberinth oil， lemon oil， ginger essence oil， and the fertilizers and insecticides are done with natural products. Indigolocks had to read a lot in order to prepare herself to be able to do all of this. She took many courses and surrounded herself with people who specialized in these areas so she could learn from them. That is why there is an agricultural engineer by name of Mardoqueo overseeing all the technical aspects of the hacienda， and Lucas who organizes all the different activities， and all the different people that contribute to the running of the Hacienda with their different skills and abilities. One doesn't need to be a millionaire in order to be successful in life. Rather， one must be prepared to work hard， be honest， and always reach the goals one sets for oneself.
