Portfolio Example & Artist Statement

I have specialized in hand crafted traditional Zuni Fetishes since 1989. I use the traditional method of a 6” grinding wheel to create various fetishes including bears, lions, Ravens, badgers, foxes, wolves, horses, turtles, frogs, mountain lion, otters ect. Each piece is hand sanded and buffed. They are then hand packed and dressed with coral, turquoise, heshi, shells, macaw and pheasant feathers.
