$ 600.00

This is a unique large figurative piece by Marie Z. Chino.  It is a chicken and note the use of her classic fineline designs which create the wings. The body and tail are painted with feather patterns.  The unique part is that the chicken is signed by Marie Z. Chino and her daughters Rose and Grace. The piece is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.  It comes from the collection of Richard Spivey, known for his books on Maria Martinez.  Richard was good friends with Marie and her family and so that is probably why it is signed by all three.
