Lisa Little lives in Acoma, New Mexico. She's of Cheyenne, Arapaho and Seminole Creek ancestry. Her late mother-in-law award-winning potter Rachel Concho taught her how to make pottery. Rachel was a wonderful artist born into the Roadrunner Clan in Acoma Pueblo in 1936. She learned the art from her mother Santana Cerno. Stunning designs are inspired from old Acoma pot shards as well as ancient Mimbres potteries.
Lisa skillfully formed a natural clay and pigments seed pottery adorning it with rhythmic symmetry that's beautifully balanced. In the old days precious life-giving seeds were everything. They were carefully stored inside the vessels which had tiny openings to keep collected seeds safe from hungry beings. When the spring season arrived, they were broken open so the seeds could be planted. Dimensions of this collectible piece are approximately 3" long, 3" wide and 2 1/4" tall. Signed by the artist.
