$ 3,600.00

Lisa Holt and Harlan Reano make an amazing team, working to create innovative pottery using traditional techniques.  Lisa makes the pottery and it is painted by Harlan.  This is one of their iconic rabbit figures.  Why iconic? They began making them a few years ago and were able to create a piece with a single center of gravity and so much extension of the arms and legs.  This rabbit has rainclouds and plant designs painted on the body with wild spinach (black) and highlighted with red clay slips.  The small clay tabs that are added are the natural color of the clay, adding another dimension to the piece.  The materials are all traditional as the red and cream are both native clays while the black is wild spinach (a plant). This figure was also traditionally fired outdoors.  It is signed, “Lisa Holt & Harlan Reano”.
