{"product_id":"seahorse-oaxacan-wood-carving-luis-pablo","title":"Luis Pablo: Contemporary Art Seahorse","description":"\u003cp\u003eLuis Pablo carved this wonderful seahorse from a single piece of copal wood. It’s impressive how he shaped the curling tail, ridged spine, and long snout from one block, with no seams or joints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstead of making the body smooth and rounded, Luis Pablo cuts it into flat, angular planes that meet at sharp, straight edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese faceted surfaces make the banding pattern look sharp. Each row of blue, green, and red ovals sits on its own flat plane, giving the piece a bold, almost architectural feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLuis Pablo takes inspiration from mid-century modern textile design, using flat colors and repeating geometric shapes. This style connects Oaxacan folk art with a design tradition from far away. The head shows the most delicate detail, with a starburst of fine dotted lines spreading out from the eye on a warm orange background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a true example of Oaxacan wood carving, fully hand-carved and hand-painted. It shows what Luis Pablo can achieve with just one piece of copal wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin: Oaxaca \u003cbr\u003eDimensions: 12''Tall 5''Long 3''Wide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sandia Folk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48730139164921,"sku":"731363LP","price":695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0245\/1069\/3451\/files\/Seahorse-Oaxacan-Woodcarving9689.jpg?v=1785520692","url":"https:\/\/www.sandiafolk.com\/products\/seahorse-oaxacan-wood-carving-luis-pablo","provider":"Sandia Folk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
