Catrina is the undisputed queen of Day of the Dead;, however, her popularity has grown so much that she makes appearances year-round in Mexican culture. This cheerful Catrina is made from a hard papier mache called cartonería, which has also expanded from making party favors to works of folk art in this same country. Marina Lozano creates the skeletal lady in a dress meant to evoke the colors of spring.

"Colorful Beauty!"
This alebrije is amazing. I bought it to add to may collection of Marina Lozanos beautiful work. I tell my 7 year old grand daughter that these will be hers someday...and that they are not toys but works of art.

"Pictures dont do it justice"
I was on the fence about this one but ultimately decided that the idea of a seahorse with butterfly wings with too amusing to pass up. Now that I have it it is a lot prettier than I realized from the pictures
