This creative tile by Susan Folwell is part of her “Taos Light” series.  She is one of the exciting innovators in Pueblo pottery.  Beginning in 2017, Susan Folwell began a series of clay pieces inspired by and re-interpreting the Taos Society of Artists’ work from 1915-27.  The shape and design of this tile is inspired by cellular phones.  The piece is made from clay and painted.  It is entitled, “The piece is entitled, “Women at Sunset” and it is inspired by the Ernest Hennings painting “Passing By” (see last photo).   It is signed on the back, “Susan Folwell”.  The piece comes with a metal cell phone stand to hold the tile. 

Susan says of this piece,

“In the painting, it is a scene with the two women walking down the lane. I wanted to give it the appearance of sunset in the spring with the flowers blooming behind them.
