Pula (Escapula or Esquipula) Gutierrez was known for her figurative pottery. She began making pieces in the 1960s and continued through the early 1990s. She was a sister of Doneria Gutierrez (1930-2013), Andrieta Naranjo Harvier (1932-2007), and Raymond Naranjo and the mother of Sandra Sue Gutierrez. She was an aunt of Debra Duwyenie on her mother’s side. This is one of the few pieces of her work we have had in the gallery and it is wonderfully charming! It is a sculpted deer that is polished and fired red. Note the way she sculpted the legs and ears! Areas are also both polished and matter. It is signed on the bottom in the clay, “Pula Gutierrez”. It is in very good condition with no chips, cracks, restoration, or repair.
