Miguel Santiago: African Giraffe AlebrijeMiguel Santiago created this gorgeous resting giraffe sculpture. Miguel Santiago considered by some authors, the finest woodcarver in Oaxaca. He is well known for his unique figures and creativity. He has developed a style of his own, paying particular attention to the faces of his subjects.
