About this item: 'All the different motifs we included to decorate this nighttime coyote are inspired by Zapotec glyphs related to the sun, water and life,' Zeny and Reyna explain. They use the tip of a maguey leaf to paint the patterns on this admirable hand-carved copal wood alebrije.

About our Artist: 'Hola! We're Zeny Fuentes and Reyna Piña, we are married and we're from a small town in Oaxaca, We both come from families dedicated to carving and painting wood in a style known as alebrije. Our parents were master carvers and they taught each of us when we were little kids. We studied different things too, but what we really like to do is crafting alebrijes and continue with our families' traditions.
