Jemez Pueblo
Patricia Daubs, “Turquoise Flower”, member
of the Eagle Clan was born in 1963 into the Jemez. She began learning
the art of working with clay at the age of 12. Her brother, the late
Steve Daubs, inspired her to continue the family tradition of pottery
making. The lucrative aspect of the business also played a key role
in her becoming an artist.
Patricia specializes in contemporary authentic hand-coiled pottery.
She gathers her materials like sand, clay, and pigments from within
the hills of the Jemez Pueblo.
Patricia cleans, mixes, shapes, hand-coils, paints, and fires her pottery
the traditional way, outdoors, with cedar wood chips. Her designs normally
include feathers, kiva steps, and serpents.
She also accents her pottery with turquoise stones to give it a unique
style. Patricia’s pottery radiates tranquility.
She signs her pottery as: Patricia Daubs, Jemez Pueblo, New Mexico.
She is related to the following artists Dennis Daubs (brother), Gerri
Daubs (mother), and the late Steve Daubs (brother).
