Rickson Kallestewa's original carving style is beloved by many. His latest offering is an expressive Bear family ready to embrace the downpour and all the delightful things that come with the rains. Their tiny sculpted pottery bowls already hold some of that life-giving water. In fact one of them is inlaid with a translucent dome that represents the fluidity of water. When you take a look inside, a tiny etched raincloud and lightning element can be seen, absolutely charming. Talented Rickson works a lot in alabaster and this approximately 5" long, 3 3/8" wide and 2 1/2" tall extraordinary piece is from one handsome portion of it. The contrasting details including sweet facial features are etched and filled with jet paste. Rickson is from the greater Bica and Kallestewa family of noted Zuni artists. He comes from a line of potters including his grandmother Nellie Bica and his mother Quanita Kallestewa.
