Exqusite and dynamic!

Product picture

I have a lot of folk art, including a number of other pieces from John Barrow, and I am mostly only interested in depictions of animals, plants, and geometric forms, not humans. However the colors of the women's dress, combined with the condor, make this one of only a handful of pieces I have in my collection depicting humans, and I am extremely happy with it! One thing I realized I especially love about this piece is the dynamism that comes from having the condor sticking out away from the piece's center of gravity.

Gorgeous carved gourd!

This is a beautiful decorative piece. The detail is so intricate and reflects a loving talent. When I hold it, I imagine the artist carefully and patiently carving the lovely, tiny and facinating scenes. When we went to Peru there was little time to shop, so I am thrilled to have a gorgeous, hand made in Peru keepsake! Peru's unique beauty is reflected by this artist's creation. It is a treasure.

Amazing

I have purchased more than half a dozen of John's work - some for gifts, but I love his pieces so much that I have five in my home. I can't say enough wonderful things about his art. Many Thanks John and Novica!
