Spectacular frog sculpture by young Oaxacan woodcarving artist Jose Luis Ruiz. Jose Luis used to work for one of the largest workshops in Oaxaca. When the pandemic hit he was laid off and had to start working independently. It has been difficult, but his great craftsmanship has slowly helped him add new collectors that appreciate his work. This frog is very well carved, with its rounded body and charming expression. The painted design is superb! Take a look at the woven-like patterns with hue gradations.
