FUN RAINBOW COLORED SCORPION INSECT OAXACA WOOD CARVINGBY THE HIGHLY TALENTED WOOD CARVER FIDEL BLAS
WONDERFUL WORK IN A UNIQUE PIECE! MEXICAN FOLK ART! FULL OF WHIMSY AND CHARM!One of our favorite trips on our travels in Oaxaca is to the village of San Pedro Cajonos! Situated high in the mountains three hours from Oaxaca City, this is one of the most idyllic settings that one may ever find! Perched at the top of the mountains, with sweeping views of the surrounding canyons and distant pueblos, San Pedro Cajonos kisses the clouds and shines in its art forms. One of the most famous of San Pedro Cajonos artists, is the Blas Family of wood carvers. Their style is so unique and can be identified readily upon sight. Bright colors, and fine painting are their hallmarks. I absolutely love the Blas Family wood carvings!
This scorpion wood carving by Fidel Blas is packed with coolness and creativity!! We loved it as soon as we saw it! So much fun with all the bright colors! This is a newer carving for us, and we are just thrilled! The legs and claws are removable for safe shipping, and the piece is signed by the artist.
