About The Artwork

Nine petals in negative design on this Cochiti bowl's interior.  Above a framing line in black is painted against the white slip. A thicker line defines the bowl's rim with a deliberate interruption serving as the bowl's spirit line.

Written in graphite underneath is the bowl's original price roughly 40 years ago, $1.75.

About The Artist

The potters of Cochiti Pueblo in New Mexico have a tradition of creating whimsical figurines of animals, birds and people. From this longstanding tradition sprang a new tradition of storytellers, beginning in the 1960s.
