Michoacán is well know for its master artisans.
Here are a few sketches of some of the ones I have visited over the past few years.
Jaime Horta from Tocuaro carves delightful animals from wood and the reeds of lake Patzcuaro. |
Felipe Horta is a master award winning mask carver from Tocuaro |
At Taller Ahuanda in Santa Fe de la Laguna Nicolas Fabián and his wife Rosario produce beautiful hand carved ceramics |
Juan Valencia Villalobos produces intricately carved Maque on wood and gourds painted with hand made pigments |
The village of Ihuatzio is famous for baskets, animals, and furniture made from the local reeds called Chuspata. |
