PIÑATAS: THE HIGH ART OF CELEBRATION
Sep 4, – Dec 4, 2021 Craft in America, Los Angeles resilience, my latest little piñata art installation includes over 200 Monarch butterflies that are hand painted, hand cut with tissue paper, and assembled. |
Years ago I thought it would be cool to find a little piñata to hang from the rear view mirror in my car. I searched several places and could not find anything so I created one myself. After some trial and error, I finally created my little piñatas! Tissue paper, glue, thick paper, string, tape, and a little creativity, is all I needed to get the job done.
Each little piñata is no bigger than the size of my palm, about 4 inches tall and wide. They all come with a hang string and each has a secret item inside that makes them rattle. They are all handmade in Los Angeles, CA. Now I create limited edition series and take custom orders. I’ve customized my little piñatas for birth announcements, birthdays, weddings, holiday celebrations, and cultural events. I create my little piñatas when I can and release them in limited editions series. I have holiday specials and take custom orders. Artist Background Isaías D.
