CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas – Stripes Convenience Stores will tell their story through art. The chain has commissioned a local artist to create a one-of-a-kind original art design that tells the story of the Laredo Taco Company, the Corpus Christi Caller Times reports.

The artist, Mayra Zamora “Hecho A Mano,” will have pieces on display inside the Elgin, Houston and Sequin stores. Stripes requested the artist study the Laredo Taco Company brand to contemplate the integrity and art of making homemade tortillas. “For Zamora, the task was easy as she pulled from her roots as a Latina growing up in South Texas as her inspiration,” a news release quoted by the paper stated.

Zamora, born in Austin and raised in Tivoli, Texas, has an extensive art background. She has painted electrical boxes for the Corpus Christi Downtown Management District and participated in a wide variety of exhibitions from Los Angeles to New York City. “My current body of work is a devotion to the fundamentals of art and my love for my Mexican heritage," Zamora said.

This isn’t the first time Stripes Convenience Stores have tapped artists. For the past two Octobers, the retailer has had Texas artists Elisa Klye Gilp and Christian Lain each design a commemorative cup for a Mexican holiday, Día de los Muertos, which is celebrated between Oct. 31 and Nov. 2. Each cup has the artist’s own design, as well as the Strips Stores and Coca-Cola logos.
