Laura Jimenez & Nicolas Morales: Fox Woodcarving

This fabulous one-piece fox sculpture was created by Oaxacan woodcarving artists Nicolas Morales and his wife Laura Jimenez. The form of the figure is so well carved and graceful. You can almost see the fluffy body and tail. The painting by top Oaxacan alebrije painter Laura is spectacular. The face is very expressive and the body language is superb. I find particularly attractive the relaxed yet alert body and facial expressions. The head comfortably resting on its curving tail!  Wonderful!
