This is one of the few artistic processes in the world which is invariably attached to a Mystic sense, using the Spirit as the Art’s raw Material and Vice-versa. Any piece from this collection is based on Experiences associated with Peyote, it is from this interaction that such colors and forms observed in Wixarika arts come to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo other Prehispanic Culture uses such a high complexity color usage as that of the Wixarikas, their craft was born as an offering to the Gods, although it also a way to communicate to their community, and even to the rest of men, the Messages of their divinity. According to their beliefs, when communication between Gods and people exist, bright colors and Shapes open a Portal, called the Nierika. This is why their Yarn compositions are named Nierikas. Their art is created using representations of knowledge acquired during ceremonies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDistinguished and much appreciated Artists are referred as “Chamanes”, properly called Maraakames, who embody their experiences with the Gods through their brilliant, intense, and even fluorescent color palette art.

Drawing mastery is one of its most notable features, represented with a “pure\" decorative style, which is predominant in these pieces, including abstract floral motives, symbolic animal representations and even geometric shapes. Traditional Mexican Elements are added to its themes: Such as the Eagle, Snake, Nahual (A Shapeshifting being commonly found in the Mexican mythology), Nopal (Cactus), and Pre-Hispanic patterns that form the synthesis of a very particular and characteristic scenario.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor its elaboration, clay-filled molds are used. The handles, “ears”, and other details are molded separately, and then embedded on the whole piece. It is then left to dry, before getting a soft sanding. After that, the piece is given an “Engobe” bath (a watery mix of clays) with the dual purpose of covering the smallest pores and serving as a background base for the paint. The painting of the design is achieved by mixing local types (of clay) with different tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBurnished Clay\u003c\/strong\u003e acquires its name from the shimmer obtained by rubbing the pieces with a burnishing tool made from a mineral named pyrite. The burnishing process starts by sanding the raw piece with river stones or very thin wet sanding paper. Once the piece is dry, it is bathed with a color that serves as a background for the decoration. Colors applied to the piece are all from mineral origin, prepared by mixing liquefied clay from the region, known as “flor de tierra” (or the Soil’s flower in English). For painting, several different traditional brushes are used, some of them made from cat’s fur, dog fur, squirrel’s tail fur, or even Fox’s tail fur. Once the piece is decorated, it is then burnished. The whole production process comes before the piece is fired, therefore, if a piece is not well crafted, it may be damaged while in the fire. The firing temperatures oscillate around 600ºC (around 1112 Fahrenheit), traditionally using firewood obtain a low flame.\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\/Luis-Cortez_a9bc43f9-077e-42eb-8912-4cb7b0bec0db.jpg?v=1524678574\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuis Cortez\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuis Cortez\u003c\/strong\u003e arrived to Tonala in the year 1980 and asked to become an apprentice in Salvador Vazquez Carmona´s Workshop, where he spent around seven years learning the basics, such as the use of the brushes and the elaboration of vases.

Drawing mastery is one of its most notable features, represented with a “pure\" decorative style, which is predominant in these pieces, including abstract floral motives, symbolic animal representations and even geometric shapes. Traditional Mexican Elements are added to its themes: Such as the Eagle, Snake, Nahual (A Shapeshifting being commonly found in the Mexican mythology), Nopal (Cactus), and Pre-Hispanic patterns that form the synthesis of a very particular and characteristic scenario.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor its elaboration, clay-filled molds are used. The handles, “ears”, and other details are molded separately, and then embedded on the whole piece. It is then left to dry, before getting a soft sanding. After that, the piece is given an “Engobe” bath (a watery mix of clays) with the dual purpose of covering the smallest pores and serving as a background base for the paint. The painting of the design is achieved by mixing local types (of clay) with different tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBurnished Clay\u003c\/strong\u003e acquires its name from the shimmer obtained by rubbing the pieces with a burnishing tool made from a mineral named pyrite. The burnishing process starts by sanding the raw piece with river stones or very thin wet sanding paper. Once the piece is dry, it is bathed with a color that serves as a background for the decoration. Colors applied to the piece are all from mineral origin, prepared by mixing liquefied clay from the region, known as “flor de tierra” (or the Soil’s flower in English). For painting, several different traditional brushes are used, some of them made from cat’s fur, dog fur, squirrel’s tail fur, or even Fox’s tail fur. Once the piece is decorated, it is then burnished. The whole production process comes before the piece is fired, therefore, if a piece is not well crafted, it may be damaged while in the fire. The firing temperatures oscillate around 600ºC (around 1112 Fahrenheit), traditionally using firewood obtain a low flame.\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\/Luis-Cortez_a9bc43f9-077e-42eb-8912-4cb7b0bec0db.jpg?v=1524678574\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuis Cortez\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuis Cortez\u003c\/strong\u003e arrived to Tonala in the year 1980 and asked to become an apprentice in Salvador Vazquez Carmona´s Workshop, where he spent around seven years learning the basics, such as the use of the brushes and the elaboration of vases.

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.
