Acoma Pueblo Pottery
Traditional Acoma pottery
is made using a slate-like clay found within the hills
surrounding the Pueblo. When fired using traditional methods,
this clay allows the potters to form very thin walls, a common
and sought after characteristic of Acoma pottery. Although hand
coiled pottery is preferred for its collectability, there are
many fine Acoma artists who prefer to use pour molded or
greenware pots as their canvas. While pour molded pots do not
retain the same value as a traditionally hand coiled piece,
their low price point makes them great for decorating or for
gifts. We carry a wide range of Authentic Acoma pottery from
artists like Dorothy Torivio, Sandra Victorino, Frederica
Antonio, Rachel Aragon, Theresa Garcia-Salvador, Wilfred Garcia,
Leland Robert Vallo, Kim Vallo, Paula Estevan, Robert Patricio,
Franklin Peters and more. For more info on the Acoma Pueblo,

ACOMA PUEBLO HAND COILED POTTERY
by Leland Robert Vallo
Leland Robert Vallo “Pinion Mesa”, is a full
blooded Native American Indian, who was born in 1969
into the Acoma Pueblo. He was inspired by many
famous artists, like Dorothy Torivio, to continue
the long lived tradition of hand coiling pottery
using ancient methods. He began making pottery in
1991.
Leland specializes in hand coiled Tularosa
Swirl pattern pottery. He gathers his clay from
the grounds within the Acoma Pueblo along with other
natural pigments. He cleans his clay, mixes, hand
coils, shapes, paints, and fires his pottery
outdoors. He hand coils many different shapes and
sizes of pottery including seed pots, wedding vases and
bowls. He also paints animals, mimbres designs, and
incorporates Kiva step patterns into his designs. He
also paints on ceramic ware from time to time.
Leland states that he is still amazed at the quality
of the artwork that Native Americans produce today.
However, his biggest inspiration thrives from
memories that he has from his mother and best friend, the late Marie Vallo. He signs his pottery as: L. Vallo, Acoma ,

HAND MADE
POTTERY STORYTELLER
by Marilyn Ray
Marilyn
Ray is a full blooded Native American Indian. She is
a member of the Yellow Corn Clan and born in 1954
into the Acoma Pueblo. She began experimenting with
clay at the age of 12. Marilyn was inspired to learn
the art of working with clay from observing her
grandmother, the late Dolores S. Sanchez. She had mastered all the fundamentals by
the age of 18 and has established herself as one of
the finest Storyteller makers of our time. Her
storytellers have been commented as being the
largest, most complex and innovative styles.
Marilyn specializes in handmade sculptures like
storytellers, small children, nativity’s, animals, and
friendship bowls. She gathers her clay and other natural
pigments from within the Acoma Pueblo. The clay and sand
is prepared by drying, grinding, and sifting before it
is mixed with water to produce the medium (weight of
clay). The clay sculptures are then hand molded, air
dried, and painted. Finally, they are fired outdoors,
the traditional way, or fired in a kiln. The colors used
on her sculptures are also provided from plants and
minerals. Marilyn combines her skills in both
traditional pottery making and figurative work. She
signs her sculptures as: Marilyn Ray, Acoma, N.M.
followed by a hand drawn lizard.

by Judy Lewis
Judy
Lewis is a full blooded Native American Indian from the Pueblo of Acoma
and she was born in 1966. She has been making pottery since 1986. Judy

towards working with clay, and the assistance that she gave to her. Judy
hand coils pottery, vases, and storytellers using the methods of her
ancestors. She only uses natural pigments for clay and paints. Judy has
developed a style of her own. She hand pinches and hand coils a
contemporary shape with traditional designs and colors. As with the
entire family the colors have a crisp but soft pastel look to them. Judy
is related to the following artists: Kathy Lewis (mother), Carolyn
Concho Lewis (sister), and Sharon Lewis (sister). She signs her art work
as Judy Lewis, Acoma, N.M.
