Susan Folwell is one of the exciting innovators in Pueblo pottery.  This new bowl is part of her series, “Roads Well Traveled: Route 66“.  This piece is entitled “Holbrook Rocks”.  It is a seedpot in she shape of a rock!  The front is painted with a scene from Holbrook, AZ with the large fiberglass dinosaurs, the “Tee-pee” hotel and vista in the distance.  It is a charming and creative piece with a lot of dimension across the surface.  It is a creative view of the curios and curiosities along Route 66!  The front is signed, Susan Folwell.

Susan says of this series:

“I’ve been taking trips and traveling along Route 66 in Arizona and New Mexico since I was a kid.  There is so much to see, interpret, and wonder about that past!  Much of the area lends itself to my natural interest in the obscure and unusual.  Neon signs from half a century ago still serve a purpose and are still in working order.  Curio shops are all along the route with enough to feed my imagination for weeks.  It history and reflection, a strange reflection of where we were as a country and a nostalgia that seems to continue to push through the cracks of time.  Honstely, it’s a walk down memory lane and there isn’t much about it, no matter how weird or unexpected, that just doesn’t make me want to smile.  I like that.”
