About the Artist
:
Sandra Victorino is a
member of the Acorn and Eagle Clans, born to Pearl and David Leno
of Acoma Pueblo in February, 1958. She grew up in a family of well-known potters
and especially remembers watching her grandmother, Lita Garcia, making pottery.
She says it was her aunt, Dorothy Torivio
, who taught her most of what she knows
of the traditional Acoma way to make and decorate pottery.
She's been producing pottery for more than 30 years.
Sandra has earned 1st, 2nd, 3rd Place and Honorable Mentions from
SWAIA Santa Fe Indian Market, the Heard Museum Guild Indian Art Fair
and the Eight Northern Pueblos Arts and Crafts Show.
She's also participated in shows in Texas, Oklahoma, and Arizona.
Sandra's favorite shapes to make are seed pots and tall neck seed pot vases.
She most loves to paint them with fine line, swirl and checkerboard designs.
She says her inspiration rises from deep in her heart and she loves to live
surrounded by family, friends and beautiful pots.
