From the artist:
“Inspiration originates from my Native Pueblo culture, we live simple & humble.
As did my Pueblo Ancestors, I also convey prayers, gratitude, joy,
and life experiences in my pottery and sculptures.
May my artwork contribute to spreading inspiration and positive energy;
and let the world know that our Indigenous people are still strong in this 21st century.”
