Portfolio Example & Artist Statement

My Pueblo pottery is crafted using traditional methods passed down through generations. I gather natural clay and pigments from local sources, hand-coil each vessel, and shape it with care. My work reflects the rich cultural heritage of the Zuni, honoring ancestral traditions while infusing my own contemporary spin to make it my own.
