Native American Zuni Pueblo storage bowl, Anderson Peynetsa, white slip with deer figures and heartlines. Acquired in 1996 in Santa Fe.

Anderson Peynetsa learned how to make pottery in the eighth grade. He is one of the most respected potters at Zuni Pueblo following traditional methods. He gathers the local clay and collects natural pigments to paint on his hand coiled, thin-walled pots. The walking deer with heartline graphic is one that frequently shows up on Anderson’s pots.

He is often assisted by Avelia, his wife, who whose ability to sand and polish compliments his well-formed pots. This pot was signed A Peynetsa, which suggests it was a project involving only Anderson since collaborations with Avelia, are signed "AA Peynetsa".

Anderson’s pottery has been exhibited at major Native American art markets and shows, such as the Santa Fe Indian Market, the Museum of Northern Arizona Zuni Show, the Heard Museum Show, and the Eight Northern Indian Pueblos Show.
