Symbolic drawings are the most common among the Huichol. This is not due to any simplicity of production, but rather because they represent their worldview. The base is wooden, upon which is placed a layer of Campeche wax. On this layer the design is drawn and then covered with string, creating these magnificent images.
Each piece contains a small description illustrating the meaning and symbolism of the different elements used in the picture. This description, written by the artisan who created the painting, can be seen on the reverse of the wooden canvas.
