This is an intricately painted jar by Les Namingha.  The jar is one of Les’s iconic shapes with a round body and an elongated neck. The background of the jar has striated bands of color.  Les has combined the color with mica to give the piece added dimension and texture.  The sections of them are reflective of the Hopi mesas and their colorations at sunset. There are give Hopi-Tewa birds which are painted onto the surface of the jar.  Each bird is a different color and they are detailed with Hopi-Tewa designs.  Each bird is designed as if they are reflecting the colors of the setting sun. Striking! The jar is signed on the bottom.
