The cats are creepy, but I love it regardless!

Product picture

Eliazar Ochoa is one of half a dozen Peruvian artisans whose page I try to check every month or so for new work; I had a rug and another tapestry by him already. I love depictions of animals. especially when they are animals you don't commonly see depicted as with llamas and rheas, two distinctly South American animals (my other tapestry from him is all condors). And while purple is my favorite color, I do like orange as well, and I saw there was a bit of purple in this. This tapestry currently occupies pride of place, on the door to my office. Which means that at close range, I've realized the faces of the cats are kind of creepy. But I'm not really sure how you could do better on a loom, and I have also seen much worse cat faces! As I look at them more, I think I definitely prefer : | to a badly done : 3 (the most popular simplified cat face), and it makes a lot more sense on a loom as well!

I received this tapestry today and I love it even more than I thought I would! Thank you, Cerapio Vallejo. You are very talented.

The tapestry is really beautiful. I love it. It is also so soft to the touch. The colors are easy on the eye. Not sure where it will live in my new home yet, but it will be a place where I can enjoy looking at it everyday.
