Lewis-Garcia, Diane – Polychrome Seedpot with Green Back Turtle

Diane Lewis-Garcia is known for her tightly painted miniature pottery. This is an intricately designed seedpot that is painted with bee-weed (black) and clay slips. There is a turtle with a green back painted with tiny designs. The edge has a water pattern. The colors are all derived from native clays and add to the impact of the design. It is signed on the bottom, “D. Lewis-Garcia”.
