Narciso Gonzalez: Opossum & Babies Woodcarving

Narciso Gonzalez is one of the top master carvers in Oaxaca. This fantastic opossum with her three babies is a fine example of this artist's amazing talent. His carvings are perfectly formed and are pleasing to the eye. His wife Ruby paints all his carvings and as you can see, she is a superb artist. The combination of colors produces a sense of texture you can almost feel. Take a look at the fantastic whirlwind-like tail of the mother opossum!
