$ 650.00

Tobie Mae (b. 2005) is a 20-year-old daughter of noted potter Robert Patricio. This bowl is coil-built from native clay and thin-walled. It has a classic Acoma bowl shape and it is painted with bee-weed.  The design is the classic “lightning” pattern, which is a revival from ancient Chaco Canyon pottery.  The bowl has negative space “mountains” near the base.  Above are black-and-white painted lightning designs.  It is a creative use of a traditional design.  The bowl is signed, “T.M. Patricio”.  It is exciting to see such excellent work by young Acoma potters!
