Painted by hand in warm, happy colors, three images of Kokopelli dance and play a song for the sun. A prehistoric image, this deity is usually depicted with a humped back, playing a flute. Legends suggest Kokopelli was a Toltec trader who traveled from central Mexico to the southwestern deserts and mountains of the U.S.; there he is featured in the form of rock art dating back thousands of years. Alejandro de Esesarte depicts him in a handcrafted wall sculpture.

Because each piece is individually hand-crafted and painted, size and color could vary slightly.

Showing a little leg and decolletage, this catrina from Luis Morales will add color and flair to any place she is displayed.

The elegant figure is based on a satirical etching created by Mexican artist José Guadalupe Posada around 1910-1913.

Today, la Catrina has become the instantly recognizable icon of Día de los Muertos (Mexico's Day of the Dead).
