fun wall art

Brighten up your wall space with this colourful set of lizards. Each of the pieces is crafted from ceramic and hand-painted by Mexican artisans Maria and Esteban in shades of blue, pink, orange, and green.

Painted with colourful lacquers, this handcrafted wall accent is a fun addition to any space. Aida and Cristino Lavariega in Mexico emboss tin sheet in the traditional style of hoja de lata, a Oaxacan art form that dates back to Spanish colonial times.

For a whimsical and fun addition to your home decor, this piece of ceramic wall art portrays a dog, a cat, a bird, and a fish among colorful hearts and bubbles. Mexican artisan Maria Isabel Cruz creates this piece, crafted using the dry rope technique, in which a wax mixture made of magnesium oxide and fat are applied to the outlines of the image or motif prior to glazing. The wax mixture creates a barrier that keeps the different fill colors in the design separate during firing, before burning off to reveal the blackened ceramic beneath. A length of nylon cord on the back provides for easy hanging.
