A month long trip to Oaxaca, Mexico provides an opportunity to see many artists and their extraordinary talents. I can appreciate their processes in developing their art and the methods used to create beautiful pieces from textiles to black pottery to painted wooden animals among many forms available.

The Tin Man
Wandering about the central district we came upon a window into a store and as we peered in to see what was there, the owner motioned for us to come around the corner for us to enter his shop. An old wooden door was opened and we entered into a large mostly empty unfinished building and in one corner was a studio and showroom. Here was the art gallery as well as the workshop for the Tin Man. His work was beautiful and intricate as you can see. I was, as usual, intrigued with his tools, as well as the process and finished product.
