Original Canvas Painting by Arnulfo Vazquez

Arnulfo Vazquez is a master artisan in the pre-Hispanic pottery technique known as barro brunido. One of the most notable features of barro brunido is how the pieces are painted in colorful, playful designs. These designs pair flora and fauna with complex geometric shapes, pre-Hispanic borders, and abstract themes including the mythical Nagual (a human who can transform into an animal, often a jaguar). Farmers tending their crops, seasonal celebrations, and observances of life and death are also among the subjects depicted.

On canvas, Arnulfo's artwork exhibits an even more substantial and breathtaking aura. His designs are visible in their entirety, unhindered, and pop with colors that cannot be achieved on clay.
