Beautiful depiction of 'Saint Francis' surrounded by his caring and love of animals by artist Manuel Delfino. It brings a smile to everyone who sees it! God has blessed you with a great talent, thank you for sharing it with the world!
Gifted this for Christmas to my sister, and she seemed delighted with it. It should look lovely in a home which sits in the foothills of the Blue Ridge where wildlife is abundant.
This substantial little turtle is more a fine example of alebrije without having the slightly menacing look of many of them. the detail is amazing, and the expression on its face is wonderful - both knowing and olayful. The colors fit well with current decor while retaining a folk art feel.
