Did you know that paper mache is one of the oldest surviving art forms around? The technique dates back as far as Ancient Egypt and is still quite popular today. Incorporating paper mache into your interior design is an inspiring way to add bright color and soft lines to your decor.
La Fuente Imports has teamed up with select artisans of Mexico in order to offer you a variety of folk art accents to brighten up your home's interior design. Our artists have created a stunning and lively array of handcrafted paper mache figurines, the likes of which are ideal for decorating the walls of your home with a remarkable splash of South-of-the-Border sunshine. The paper mache artwork which is offered on our site is handmade from start to finish; no machines are ever used in the production.
Our new Day of the Dead figures are created by two studios who possess highly-skilled artisans. Each studio specializes in a stylistic representation of the celebrated afterlife. Every Day of the Dead figurine is hand-formed and hand-painted, giving you an original, eye-catching art piece perfect to display in your home throughout the year.
Senor Roberto Garcia has been specializing in paper mache figures since 2004 and has developed a following for his fun and whimsical characters. We are very happy to welcome him to the La Fuente family of artisans. After hand-forming each figure, Sr. Garcia painstakingly hand-paints each with bright colors and creative patterns.
