Butterflies
Maribel Lopez comes from a very talented family of potters from the Mata Ortiz village, in Mexico. Her father creates scenes of the forest, her sister etches fine lined geometric pots and Maribel paints beautiful, birds, butterflies and insects. Her attention to detail and color palette are amazingly sophisticated. This is a new generation of creativity coming from the village that is so well known for their fine handcrafted pottery.
Mary Louise Eteeyan is a self taught potter. She learned by observing other potters in her village at Jemez. Mary Louise is known for her beautiful signature Butterfly design, it appears on all her vases and lidded pots. The featured wedding vase is made from the clay she dug on her pueblo. All her pottery is hand work clay, hand coiled, and fired in the traditional manner in an outdoor pit.
