Oaxacan Wood Carving Lauro Ramirez Coyote Oaxaca Mexican Folk Art Alebrije

  
REGAL HOWLING COYOTE OAXACA WOOD CARVING BY THE HIGHLY TALENTED WOOD CARVER LAURO RAMIREZ. WONDERFUL MUSEUM QUALITY WORK IN AN ACCESSIBLE PIECE! WHIMSICAL AND FUN WITH A GREAT SENSE OF MOTION! I love this coyote wood carving by Lauro Ramirez and his wife Griselda Morales! We are so excited to now carry their spectacular wood carvings! Lauro and Griselda are from Arrazola, a beautiful town just outside of Oaxaca City, and the village that many would call the birthplace of the Oaxacan Wood Carvings.

Arrazola is located close to the famous ruins of Monte Alban and the newly opened ruins at Atzompa. The area is rich in history and tradition, and Lauro and Griselda seek to maintain the traditions in their fine, high quality work.

Their son is also quite skilled at carving, and has won several student awards for his work. It is refreshing to see a young family so involved in the traditions of folk art! This coyote wood carving is really well executed! Masterfully carved and beautifully painted, it is just a truly eye catching piece full of a sense of movement and whimsy. Lauro truly deserves much more acclaim in the world of Mexican Folk Art, and we believe that he is one to watch! A hidden talent whose prices will continue to rise!
