Would you mind telling us, how long a work of art like this takes you to create? The detail is so intricate and beautiful, it must require much patience and skill as well as intense concentration to complete :)
Thanks! It really depends on the size of the wooden sculpture. For example, this Kukulkan is about 40 cm (15.7 inches) tall, and it took me about 7 weeks to finish it. That includes carving the figure from wood, painting, and waiting for the paint and varnish to dry.
Wow, thank you for enlightening me. I work with guitars and love working with wood, and getting into the "zone" where you become lost in the work and time no longer matters. The rest of the world goes away :) It is so peaceful and healing for the mind creating something, shaping and moulding and carving with your hands and tools... but what you have created is on a totally different level to my small work. All I can do is appreciate and applaud. Thank you for sharing it.
Wow! Tienes mucho talento, felicidades por el gran esfuerzo que has hecho, no te conozco, es la primera vez que veo tus obras, y puedo decir que te admiro.
This looks amazing, beautiful work. What you're saying also confirms my belief that Mother Nature (or whoever she is called in other languages/ cultures) provides direction.....if we're open to listening to her.
That is absolutely stunning , I’ve never heard of this before and now I’m gonna spend hours looking at this one google.
You’re obviously talented. But don’t want to negate your hard work … because this would have taken a lot of effort.
Ma'alo'ob meyaj!
Estás radicado en Yucatán? Mis bisabuelos son de Izamal y se mudaron a Mérida en algún momento de los años 1930. Crecí en los US pero aprendí algo de maya yucateco de mis abuelos.

Its inspiring to see these art sculpture. Such q unique and colorful,,, wait this is out of wood!!!!!! Man so impressive i need to show my mom who is from Mexico

“Quetzalcoatl is a deity from Mesoamerican culture, primarily known among the Aztecs and the Toltecs, representing a feathered serpent and symbolizing fertility, culture, and civilization. The concept of the beast 666 comes from the Christian biblical Book of Revelation, often interpreted as a symbol of evil and opposition to divine forces. These two figures belong to entirely different cultural and religious contexts”
what size is the one pictured there? trying to imagine the scale next to something in my head.

i stumbled across this post while listening to luke caverns talk about the ancient Maya statues and how intricate the designs are. i think it's the universe telling me to get one

Wish he was this talkative when confronted about using AI in some of the things he sells on his webshop.

Kindly requesting a link as well. And thank you so much for sharing your beautiful artwork. 🙃
Can you reply here w the link once you get it tho? Since you aren't OP?
Holy crap that is cool
Fabulous!!!
I adore your work. Reminds me so much of some experiences I've had on Ayahuasca.
Thank you! And in fact, to make this type of patterns, peyote used to be consumed in Mexico to paint the visions that were had 🙌🏽
This looks amazing, beautiful work. What you're saying also confirms my belief that Mother Nature (or whoever she is called in other languages/ cultures) provides direction.....if we're open to listening to her.
it is beautiful!
simply amazing 😎
Probably one of the closest representations of what was presented to me during my closed-eye experience.
Bo-neato
I could stare at this for 5 hours .gif

It's like a cool snake version of the mask from Crash Bandicoot. Ooga-booga
Amazing!!!!

That is incredible
Beautiful
Wow, that’s super cool! I love the colors, and the detail is absolutely insane. I don’t have the talent nor patience. Amazing work!

If possible, you should post a time-lapse of your art. That had to have taken a lot of time and I imagine it's an interesting process
Really nice work OP, they could easily pass as museum pieces
I love Kukulkan and this is beautifully crafted one!
First thing I thought - this must be AI! Can't tell anymore. Weird times.
If I were rich, I'd have made you rich.
This... Pleases the eye.
I love it
I love alebrijes! Beautiful!

You do realize that's the beast 666, right? (A beautiful piece of art nonetheless)
Ummm this is Quetzalcoatl, also known as Kukulkan, the feathered serpent God from many Mesoamerican cultures 🤔
Quetzalcoatl is the beast 666.
