Estevan, Paula (b. 1967)
Paula Estevan is renowned for her intricately painted Acoma pottery. She began making pottery around 1986. Each year the work seems to become more intricate and delicate in design and form. Paula is masterful at using simple designs to emphasize the shape of her pottery. Each piece is very thin-walled and coil-built. They are painted with native clay slips and bee-weed.
