Description: This adorably posed Huichol beaded art, 3D shaped, pug dog figurine is completely adorned with micro-glass beads and it has important symbols for the Huichol Gods. This beautiful sculpture is perfect for a Day of the Dead celebration or Dia de Los Muertos ofrenda. Handmade by Mexican Huichol Indian artist, Isaias Bautista Carrillo, Turatemai, in Mexico. It is so beautiful and is hand sculpted with a mixture of a resin and fish bone materials. Using the traditional Huichol techniques of pressing Campeche beeswax onto this sculpture and adding, one-by-one, glass beads this gorgeous puppy dog figurine depicts the offering message to the Huichol Gods. Isaias used clear pink with pink pearl center beads for the background and we love how he turned some of the beads sideways for extra sparkle. Every part of this sculpture is 3D. Her right playful paw is up and turned slightly inward, her chest is rounded with muscles and her face is completely sculpted including the bright blue bow in her (or his) hair. The Huichol symbols are linked to the Shamanic traditions of the past. On her face, a large scorpion with a royal blue God's Eye in the center is the protector of the three Peyote flowers on her cheeks. We love the gray pearl beads on her eyes, chin and peyote flowered lips. On her chest, a large yellow deer, ultimate messenger to the Gods, protects her heart. The God of rain, the salamander, with God's Eye center provides the water to help her grow (as seen on her paws). Three green Peyote flowers lead to an extra large Peyote flower that is fully grown with fire color background. Interesting how the artist incorporated smaller green Peyote flowers within the extra large flower. On her belly, the snake protects the large Peyote and instructs the Shaman to be healers.
