This is traditional shaped bowl by Debbie Clashin.  She is a cousin of noted potter Mark Tahbo and a descendant of Grace Chapella.  Debbie has quickly become well known for her large-sized traditional Hopi-Tewa pottery. This bowl has a narrow base and a wide shoulder. The symmetry is exceptional for the width of the piece!  The bowl is painted with bee-weed (black) and red clay slips.  The design is a mesa, cloud and rising sun pattern.  The lines are delicately painted and thin.  The creative patterns flows across the surface of the piece.  It is traditionally fired which creates the blushes across the surface of the bowl.   It is signed on the bottom with her name and a pipe for his “Tobacco Clan”.
