Viva Oaxaca Tin Art:

 Hand-tooled tinwork is one of Mexico’s most unique and colorful crafts. Also known as hojalata, it’s been a popular artists’ medium since Spanish Colonial times. “The raw material is produced in factories where workers coat thin sheets of iron with molten tin. This creates a lightweight, durable medium with a smooth and shiny surface. It can be easily bent, crimped, cut and soldered to form intricate shapes. It’s best to keep tin figures indoors. In wet weather, the iron exposed in the cut edges of a sheet will turn to rust.”

Earth View Alebrijes:

With their engaging designs and brilliant colors, Oaxaca wood carvings are the most sought-after kind of folk art in Mexico. Often referred to as “alebrijes”, the finely crafted figurines are created by the talented carvers of the Oaxaca (pronounced wah-HA-kuh) valley. The artisans carve and paint the whimsical figurines by hand. Each is one-of-a-kind, in both shape and coloring. Collectors prize them, especially if signed by the artists. Kids love them too, particularly after seeing the alebrijes animated in the movie “Coco”.Oaxaca carvings arrived on the Mexican art scene in the 1980s. Folk art enthusiasts discovered and promoted the wooden figurines of Manuel Jimenez, who lived in the village of Arrazola. Now, some 200 families in the valley are carving to meet the vast demand for this art. THe artisan families are proud descendants of the pre-Colombian Zapotec culture. They live mostly in three villages – Arrazola, San Martín Tilcajete, and La Union Tejalapan. They make their figurines from the twisted branches of hte copal tree, which grows wild on the valley hills. The wood is lightweight, easily workable, and sands to a smooth finish. The workers chop at sawed off branches with their machetes, then culpt the finer details with pocket knives. They get their inspiration from many places, including their dreams and superstitions, and their exuberant fiestas. Production is often a family affair – dads wield the cutting tools, creating the raw figure. After it has dried out for a couple of weeks, children help with sanding, then mothers paint the vivid, detailed patterns.

Earth View Ironwood Art:

This is a unique piece of art from the Sonoran Desert of Arizona and Northern Mexico. It was handrafted from desert Ironwood (Olneya tesota) , a very dense and heavy wood of intriguing origin. To be suitable for carving, the wood must be exposed to the extremes of the climatic conditions that exist only in the desert. Years of exposure in this hot, dry environment cause the natural resins to collect, condense, and cure, thus transforming the wood into very dense and heavy Ironwood. The government has restricted the harvesting of living ironwood trees, causing the artisans to search extensively for naturally fallen trees.

Ironwood carving is an unusually demanding art form originated by the Seri Indians, a small tribe that have dwelled in the great Sonoran Desert for thousands of years. Once the wood has been gathered, each piece is handcrafted using very simple tools. It requires long hours of carving, hand sanding and polishing, pus an artistic “eye” to effectively capture the beautiful burl and distrinctive grain inherent to Ironwood. The result of this hand work is that no two pieces are identical. There is a limited supply of true Ironwood and diminishing numver of carvers. It is possible that your purchase may appreciate in value. 

To preserve your art piece for years to come, polish with a soft cloth and occasionally apply a light coat of netural pastye-type shoe wax.
