Isaias Alejandro Morales Delgado: Infinita Tristeza (Infinite Sadness): Howling Coyote

We are fortunate to have several new pieces in stock and ready to ship from premier paper artist Izzy Morales. This showing coyote is a real treat. So much detail in this lonely graveside coyote with a drink and smoke in hand. He may not be as lonely as he thinks if you look closely at his leg.

Cartonería is a traditional Mexican technique that uses paper and paste as its main ingredients, as well as wire structures, natural fibers, acrylic paint, and a matte lacquer finish. Izzy Morales from Guanajuato is an amazing talent in the field of traditional paper alebrijes and he has developed a wild imaginative modern style all his own. He has been working with paper art since he was 6 years old. Now in his early thirties, he competes in national competitions with his award-winning work. These pieces are highly labor-intensive and he works exclusively on one of kind fine art wonders rather than taking a mass-produced commercial approach. It has paid off for him and he has developed into a well-respected artist nationally.
