Kateri Quandelacy Sanchez was taught to carve at 8 or 9 years old by her aunt Faye Quandelacy using hand tools. She shared "We had a grinding stone that was my grandma’s, one of us would have to turn the wheel and the other one would sit there grinding. I don’t know what happened to it, it was part of a collection that Faye donated to a museum. We had a hand-pump drill as well." Kateri's latest offering is a gentle Corn-Maiden sculpted from rich pipestone. Facial features are from iridescent mother-of-pearl etched and filled with jet paste. About 1 3/4" tall, 5/8" wide and 1/4" deep.
