Mother Earth & the Human Spirit made One!

My attraction to the Southwest began as a boy with my family's subscription to Arizona Highways. It wasn't until the early 1970s that I made my first trip to the Southwest as an artist in the medium of photography to participate in a photography workshop. It was held in Tucson where I was privileged to study under Ansel Adams, Minor White, Judy Dater, Jack Welpott, Frederick Summers and several other famous photographers. I saw how different the colors, terrain and the light of the Southwest were from my home in New England. I've returned to see more of it whenever I can.

I saw pueblo pottery several times prior to becoming interested in it. I thought it was nice but I never purchased. Then, on a visit to Chimayo, New Mexico, I met Joseph Sisneros, director of the Rancho de Chimayo Collection, who generously spent hours explaining the devotion, the artistry, the endurance, and the spirit of the pueblo potters who produce this beautiful art work. As an artist, as a patron of the arts, and as person who loves and respects Nature, I could not help but be captivated.

Today, when I hold a piece of pueblo pottery in my home, I can smell pinon and cedar smoldering; see a seemingly endless horizon filled with turquoise skies and muted pastel colored hills; mesas and canyons; and the crisp, dry morning air warming as the sun begins to cast its light on the earth after a cool dessert night. Holding this pottery reconnects us with Mother Earth and the natural order. The stress and fear inherent to the world of men and women in the 21st century seem to fade into the background. It's a bit of magic and this pottery is the medium through which Mother Earth and the human spirit become one.

Pueblo pottery is created by people who stand closer to the Earth and the natural way than most of us ever will. They have done so for countless generations as once, long ago, all our ancestors did also. It is the difference between 'taking' and 'receiving' that distinguishes them from our society's usual approach to the Earth and her bounty. That difference blesses them with an incredible ability to discover such beauty in the most base element of creation--- clay. Through this pottery we can share that blessing and hopefully a better vision of the place we call home and our connection to it. This belief is why I've chosen to present and promote these wonderful creations. Most all those from whom I purchase and those to whom I sell have found a spiritual link to life, Mother Earth and the Creator through this pottery. I honor that connection by conducting my gallery business with honesty, integrity and fairness. I give my word and I keep it.
