Frederica Antonio is renown for her intricately painted pottery. Each piece is coil built and then finely painted. Her designs are a series of fine vertical and horizontal lines which are then filled in to create larger images in the squares. This jar is a classic olla shape with a high shoulder and short neck. Frederica painted the neck with a stylized Acoma lighting design. The jar itself is wonderfully detailed with a starburst pattern. Each of the four stars are outlined wiht red and tan clay slips. Separating them are cloud designs with a checkerboard pattern near the neck. Near the base are mountain designs, again with a checkerboard pattern. The variations in color and design are perfectly balanced on this jar! This combination of thin walls, classic shape and tightly painted design create a piece which is visually stunning! The jar is signed on the bottom.
