Tyra Naha is a daughter of Rainy Naha. She learned to make pottery from her mother and continues to make traditional-style Hopi-Tewa pottery in the style of her grandmother, Helen “Feather Woman” Naha. This large plate fully polished on the front and back. The central design is a turtle representing the Water Clan, and there is a rainbow design around the edge. Note the “back” of the turtle. There are eight connected cloud and rain designs. It is painted with bee-weed (black) and colorful clay slips. It was traditionally fired and signed on the back with a feather and spider (Spider Clan ).
