(LYWY) Isabel Fabian: Colima Dog Woodcarving
Gorgeous pre-Columbian guardian Colima dog with corn by top Oaxacan artist Isabel Fabian. The people of the Colima Culture truly valued their dogs, who considered them as companions and guardians and even accompanied them in the after-world. This one-piece Colima dog figurine, also known as Tlalchichis, is exquisitely carved and painted with intricate patterns and motifs, blending ancient fretwork with contemporary geometric designs. The Green Jade, turquoise, and Maya Blue colors Rocio chose, were used in pre-Columbian cultures. It's a true masterpiece!
