Portfolio Example & Artist Statement
Gary Roybal

I am a Santo Domingo/San Ildefonso Pueblo native hunter and I use my native creations during my hunts and guides. I take pride in my art by using my traditional designs and put them on wood that I gather from mountains, river bends, riparian and my backyard. I design, cut, saw, carve, chisel, burn by hand with help of certain tools for the more precise areas. I participate in various art shows internationally and have won ribbons. I have been part of SWAIA before I began high school. I would share a booth with my sister and grandparents of Santo Domingo. I keep their memories and teachings alive with me in my art.
