Nelson Yatsattie
is backordered. We will ship it separately when it becomes available.
The famous Italian art technique of sgraffito is accomplished by scratching through a material's surface to reveal the lower contrasting layer. It was used during the Renaissance, in the decoration of buildings and palace facades. Nelson Yatsattie made stunning use of this artistic approach in a roughly 2 1/2" long, 1" wide and 1 3/4" tall personality-plus Bobcat (or wildcat). This lovely and intricate treatment really emphasizes fur and enhances the beauty of the serpentine specimen. Observant eyes are from turquoise inlays.
Salvador Romero, Cochiti
Self-taught carver Salvador Romero reads the stone and sees the individual animal. He walks near his Cochiti Pueblo home about one to five miles in search of the perfect stone. He has a feeling knowing immediately when he finds the right one. Not just a Bobcat but a bobcat with a sturdy presence. Independent and resilient, wildcats are found throughout North America. About 5" long, 1" wide and 3" tall, sculpted from found stone.
