Mauricio 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 precise depiction of a green-breasted mango hummingbird complete with slender bill, green plumage, and orange-brown tail feathers.

"Another for the collection"
Mauricio is a skilful and dedicated artist and a truly delightful man. We have visited Guatemala on a number of occasions and have visited his stall each time - he is a warm and caring man who deals with his customers as friends. Each visit has been a treat. Being able to add to our collection through NOVICA from an armchair in the UK is an extra bonus.

"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.

"Soooo adorable !!!"
I fell in love with Puffins when we saw them off the Maine coast. They are just like Mauricio depicted, colorful and playful. It is a great addition to our Maine room decor. Perfect.
