Lawrence Namoki could be the finest contemporary Hopi potter of his time. His signature pottery almost seems to be made of wood rather than hand dug clay. His pottery is both carved and painted with the highest detail. I find Lawrence highly spiritual and a great teacher of the Hopi beliefs. He has been featured in Southwestern art magazine[you can find the article on line] and his award winning pottery graces the Smithsonian. Every line and symbol mean something and he names every original piece. All colors are minerals from the earth, no paint is used! Click any picture to go to that piece.
