Miguel Santiago


Miguel Santiago considered by some the finest wood carver in Oaxaca, is well known for his superb figures and great craftsmanship.  

He has developed a style of his own, paying particular  attention to the faces of his subjects.  The eyes are not only painted but carved as well.

This gorgeous red fox has his trademark style, carved eyes and beautifully painted ears and just a fabulous expression!
