Jason takes on the Pueblo Revolt with a Pueblo Warrior holding a bow. The leather leggings are being worn, and in the background are the Pueblo and kivas with ladders. The green hills are in the background. With his arrow pointed down, is he seeing a friend or a retreating enemy? There is drama and power inherent in this piece! The coloration on this piece is striking, with the clay showing through to create the ground and the subtle sky. The motion and power of this piece are exceptional. His signature raincloud is in the upper right. His piece is signed with his Tewa name, Okuu Pin, which means Turtle Mountain.
