Delivery EstimateMauricio Morales crafts a small ceramic bird figurine that features exquisite hand painted detailing. "The process for making these small animals was something I learned when I was small...since then it has become a passion of mine," says the Guatemalan artisan, adding that the bird sculpture is made for, "...all of those who love birds." He starts by mixing the clay and carefully shaping the figure, and then he adds aluminum legs and feet. After the bird is fired, he sands it, mixes his own colors and paints the figurine. The result is a charming and minutely detailed depiction of a roadrunner complete with blueish skin around the eye area and a crown covered in small white spots.

"This is a really cute roadrunner bird!"
I lived in Phoenix when I was much younger, and I loved seeing the roadrunner birds. I still love them, and this figurine by Mr. Morales is perfect and I am adding it to my collection of pretty birds he has made. My thanks to him (again).

"Beautiful Oriole"
I gave this as a gift and the recipient put it in a outside planter and it still looks good after a few years. He loves Orioles and happens to be a Baltimore Orioles fan.

"I needed this sweet Pink Robbin"
Thank your Mauricio! Your work never ceases to amaze me. I dont think I will ever truly have enough of your birds. This little robin flew all the way from Australia via your hands in Guatemala. I love learning all about new-to-me-creatures in the world, so I read all about my new little beauty.
