Description

Margaret Garcia Gourd Chicken Pair, Hand Crafted & Signed

Charming pair of hand-crafted gourd art chickens by local Las Cruces artist Margaret Garcia. Each piece is constructed from natural gourds and decorated entirely by hand, featuring Garcia’s distinctive geometric and feather-inspired painted patterns in warm tones of red, black, and tan. The smaller chicken is signed on the bottom, while both sculptures display the artist’s characteristic folk-art style, expressive forms, and meticulous linework.

Together, these two pieces make a delightful decorative grouping, ideal for collectors of Southwestern folk art, handmade sculpture, or unique artisan gourd work. Their lively presence and detailed craftsmanship highlight the creativity and individuality of Garcia’s studio practice.

CONDITION

Both pieces are in good overall condition. The smaller chicken shows a visible repaired area with glue residue around the neck and tail attachments. Light surface wear is present on each piece, consistent with hand-painted gourd art. Please review photos for full detail.

Smaller Chicken: 7" H × 6" W × 7" D
