Sergio Lugo is the middle son of noted potter Nancy Youngblood and a brother to Joseph Lugo and Christopher Youngblood. He learned to make pottery from his mother. Each piece is coil-built, carved or painted, stone polished, and traditionally fired. This large bowl is entitled, “Double Avanyu, Double Rainbow, Double Mountain”. The bowl has a painted avanyu on the top and the bottom. Above the shoulder are carved and rounded rainbows. Below the shoulder are carved and rounded mountains. Around the center is a stylized sun design. The bowl is deeply carved and all the carving is rounded out and slipped with black and red clay. It is a striking contrast of color, carving, shadows, and tightly painted designs. Even the base is carved with a water design, emanating upward to the rest of the design! The bowl was traditionally fired. It is a creative use of design and form. It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Sergio Lugo”.
