About The Artist

Robert Patricio, also known by his given name “Bear,” was born into Acoma Pueblo in June 1976. At the age of eight, he began learning the traditional methods of hand-coiling pottery from his great-grandmother, the esteemed Marie Z. Chino. Today, Robert is known for his expertise in hand-coiled, hand-painted pottery, which reflects both his deep respect for tradition and his personal artistic vision.

Pueblo

Acoma Pueblo is situated on top of a mesa, hundreds of feet above the surrounding land. It commands a breathtaking view of the countryside, other mesas, and the distant mountains – no wonder it is called Sky City.
The thin-walled and delicately decorated pottery of Acoma Pottery is among the most prized Indian crafts.
