This extraordinary and captivating organic creature, known as Alebrije, was initially conceived by the esteemed artist Pedro Linares and has since become an integral part of the local village tradition. Among the top creators of these mythical creatures is the skilled artist Medardo Blas from San Pedro Cajonos, who imbues his intricate and bulb-eyed Alebrijes with a benevolent yet fierce touch. The creatures' alluring colors range from deep oranges and aquas to rich purples and golds, truly reflecting their diverse nature and can be admired from all perspectives.
