Alebrijes are brightly coloured fantastical wooden sculptures originally created by Pedro Linares in Mexico, quite often a mix of two or more creatures. In the 1930’s Linares fell very ill and had a vivid dream where, in a forest, the rocks and clouds were turning into strange creatures, for example a lion with an eagle head or a donkey with butterfly wings. They were all shouting one word ‘Alebrijes!” With all these patterns you can mix and match elements to create you own unique creature – how about a tiger with deer horns, or a goat with a long tiger tail? Let your imagination run wild with colour too!

Skill level: Intermediate.
