Eric Lewis

Eric Lewis is the son of Acoma potters Sharon Lewis and Bernard Lewis. It's hard to say who taught him what about making pottery the traditional way because there are so many big names among his relatives, but he probably learned the basics from his mother at an early age.

Today Eric is known for for his "doodles," distinctive black-on-white, tattoo-like designs that he paints all over his pieces. Recently, his "doodles"" have become more like optical illusions containing faces and figures.
