Catrina in Red Hand Crafted Papier Mache Catrina Sculpture with Hat

Marina Lozano

(11)

Elegantly clad in a red and gold gown, La Catrina lifts the edge of her lacy, broad-brimmed hat. Maria Lozano in Mexico crafts the wonderful skeletal figurine from papier mache, painting it carefully by hand. Lozano designs the figurine after the original "La Calavera Catrina", a zinc etching created by the artist José Guadalupe Posada in Mexico around 1910. Posada created the character, a female skeleton with an elegant hat, as a satirical portrait of Mexican natives who aspired to European style and denied their own heritage. The catrina has since become an emblem of Mexico's Day of the Dead celebration and a popular folk art subject.

Horse of the Sea Hand Painted Seahorse Alebrije Sculpture

Marina Lozano

(11)

This irresistible, colorful creature from Marina Lozano will win your heart. The alebrije is crafted by hand from recycled papier mache and carefully painted by hand. The whimsical sculpture has the body of a seahorse and the wings of a butterfly.

The folk art tradition of alebrijes dates back to the 1930's in Mexico City. A man named Pedro Linares was taken ill, and in his fevered dreams he saw a strange land populated with curious creatures--a donkey with wings, a rooster with bull's horns, and a lion with the head of a dog. The beasts all ran at him, shouting "alebrije! alebrije!". Upon his recovery, Linares began recreating the fantastical creatures he had seen in his dream. The art form gained popularity, and alebrijes are now made of wood as well as papier mache.

simply beautiful

This pair of elephant sculptures is stunning in its shapes and colors, and heartwarming in its theme of a mother elephant and child. It now sits on our mantelpiece, but would looks charming in many other locations. Just lovely! Thank you so much.

A beautiful statue set

For several years, I cherished a set of mother-and-child elephants from Novica. When I lost them in a house fire, I knew I needed to replace them with something just as beautiful. This set, which I chose to represent my three children (16, 8, and 3) is even more lovely that I had hoped.
