This substantial little turtle is more a fine example of alebrije without having the slightly menacing look of many of them. the detail is amazing, and the expression on its face is wonderful - both knowing and olayful. The colors fit well with current decor while retaining a folk art feel.
This lovely and adorable Catrina is so finely made and decorated. The attention to detail and the personality of the figure is so endearing! I am in love with her.
Thank you, Mauricio. My friend loves her little bird of happiness. I couldn't resist buying it for her... She is such a lover of birds. I have purchased many of Mauricio's birds -- some for gifts and several for myself. Each one a true work of art.
