Portrait of A Living Artist

Irene Aguilar is one of three sisters that lives in Ocotlan, Oaxaca, MX that is re noun for her clay sculptures and figures. We read about the family in the Rough Guide to Mexico
Her works have a great sense of humor, and she has been a sculptor her entire life. Her father passed down his skills and now many of the family members work in the ladies studios.
She laughs when I tell her that her caricatures of busty women seem as though they came right off a Mexican TV talk show.
I'd love to have all of her works, but trying to bring anything back by motorcycle on some of the worst roads in the world would be ruinous.
