It dates from the Colonial Era, and it stands out because of its cheerful and joy-filled figurines, with several different motives such as Lions, Dogs, Roosters, Trees of Life, and Noah’s arks, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBetus Clay\u003c\/strong\u003e takes its name because; before firing and painting the piece, it is given a Betus oil bath (which is made from the resin that comes from Birch Trees). This type of pottery’s most characteristic features are the striking, fun and brilliant colors applied to Fantastic Animals, playful Bible Characters, and ingenuous architectural reproductions which are molded directly in the clay, with some other details produced in clay or plaster casts. Nowadays, some artisans mix traditional and modern processes to produce these crafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe process starts with the collection of clay in Tonala’s Mines, big chunks of soil are pulverized and then mixed with a stronger type of clay called “Liga” (a binding clay), the clays are kneaded and molded into unique forms. The oven is prepared, and pieces, sculpted days before, are fired. It is before firing, that the clay has a dark tone to it. The pieces must be dried outdoors before being fired, otherwise they may explode while in the oven. Each figure is then rubbed with Betus (Birch Tree) Oil, right before being fired, giving a lacquered aspect to the finished pieces. The firing process is carried on with a low temperature compared to other types of ceramics. Ovens are simple brick holes covered in antique tiles. After the pieces are fired, they are colored with industrial anilines, the final coating of Betus oil is applied directly with the hands, rubbed in without using any brushes. As of today, the usage of acrylic paints and synthetic lacquer have given brighter and more colorful figures, as well as making a faster production process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAbout the Artisan\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: left;\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0008\/7582\/3167\/files\/Gerardo-ortega_7e22116d-b936-410d-b227-0d9228ecd04a_large.jpg?v=1524681733\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGerardo Ortega\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour generations of tradition do converge in \u003cstrong\u003eGerardo Ortega’s “Ortega’s Folk”\u003c\/strong\u003e Workshop, who, along with his artisan brothers, has been crafting surreal and fantastical pieces for over 40 years, with one of Santa Cruz de las Huertas’, Tonala, Jalisco, most representative techniques: \u003cstrong\u003eBetus Clay\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eHis grandparents used to work in the fields, for both reap and sow, and on their free time, they dedicated to their art’s development. \u003cstrong\u003eGerardo\u003c\/strong\u003e’s grandmother designed pieces such as roosters, other animals, chandeliers, fruits and other surreal figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGerardo Ortega\u003c\/strong\u003e is very known for his \u003cstrong\u003eTrees of Life\u003c\/strong\u003e.

It dates from the Colonial Era, and it stands out because of its cheerful and joy-filled figurines, with several different motives such as Lions, Dogs, Roosters, Trees of Life, and Noah’s arks, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBetus Clay\u003c\/strong\u003e takes its name because; before firing and painting the piece, it is given a Betus oil bath (which is made from the resin that comes from Birch Trees). This type of pottery’s most characteristic features are the striking, fun and brilliant colors applied to Fantastic Animals, playful Bible Characters, and ingenuous architectural reproductions which are molded directly in the clay, with some other details produced in clay or plaster casts. Nowadays, some artisans mix traditional and modern processes to produce these crafts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe process starts with the collection of clay in Tonala’s Mines, big chunks of soil are pulverized and then mixed with a stronger type of clay called “Liga” (a binding clay), the clays are kneaded and molded into unique forms. The oven is prepared, and pieces, sculpted days before, are fired. It is before firing, that the clay has a dark tone to it. The pieces must be dried outdoors before being fired, otherwise they may explode while in the oven. Each figure is then rubbed with Betus (Birch Tree) Oil, right before being fired, giving a lacquered aspect to the finished pieces. The firing process is carried on with a low temperature compared to other types of ceramics. Ovens are simple brick holes covered in antique tiles. After the pieces are fired, they are colored with industrial anilines, the final coating of Betus oil is applied directly with the hands, rubbed in without using any brushes. As of today, the usage of acrylic paints and synthetic lacquer have given brighter and more colorful figures, as well as making a faster production process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAbout the Artisan\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: left;\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0008\/7582\/3167\/files\/Gerardo-ortega_7e22116d-b936-410d-b227-0d9228ecd04a_large.jpg?v=1524681733\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGerardo Ortega\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour generations of tradition do converge in \u003cstrong\u003eGerardo Ortega’s “Ortega’s Folk”\u003c\/strong\u003e Workshop, who, along with his artisan brothers, has been crafting surreal and fantastical pieces for over 40 years, with one of Santa Cruz de las Huertas’, Tonala, Jalisco, most representative techniques: \u003cstrong\u003eBetus Clay\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eHis grandparents used to work in the fields, for both reap and sow, and on their free time, they dedicated to their art’s development. \u003cstrong\u003eGerardo\u003c\/strong\u003e’s grandmother designed pieces such as roosters, other animals, chandeliers, fruits and other surreal figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGerardo Ortega\u003c\/strong\u003e is very known for his \u003cstrong\u003eTrees of Life\u003c\/strong\u003e.
