Description: REYES MADALENA Native American, handcrafted this OWL. It stands 2 1/4 inches tall, 1 3/4 inches wide. Reyes' attention to detail is evident in this small piece of artwork. She and her family carefullly carry out each step of her pottery, beginning with mining the clay. Her understanding of the properties of varying clays results in earthenware that is very smooth, resists cracking and burnishes to a splendid sheen. Her work with clay is called "magic." Her pottery is decorated with tiny triangles that form multiple patterns,horizontal and zigzag, much like a quilt. The designs and the types of pottery she creates are tied to the traditions of her Anasazi ancestry. She produces beauty through her art and sustains an important connection to her culture and its traditions. The precision of her artistry is truly amazing.
