    Full Sized Art

    Not mine, but I wish they were. Found these and more at a roadside place near Mono Lake, Calif.
    These are full sized and made by a family in Mexico.
    The stagecoach with horses sells for $7k.

    Really awesome find. Do you by any chance have a close up of the bison?

    The place is called Walker Flea Farmers Market in Coleville, Ca.
    Man, that stuff is labor intensive.

    It's absolutely mind numbing thinking about the amount of time went into those. And the focus to be able to concentrate on the project for that long.

    Don't think there is a minimum wage in Mexico.
