This group of four animals are by Margaret & Luther Gutierrez.  Margaret would make the pottery and Luther, her brother, would paint them.  There is a raccoon, bear, duck and pig.  Each is painted with various designs.  All the various colors are derived from natural clay slips.  They are each in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration or repair.  They are signed on the bottom, “Margaret/Luther”.   All three are from the collection of Richard Spivey, known for his books on Maria Martinez.  The tag on the bottom is his inventory numbering system.
