Ethel Vigil, Santa Clara Pueblo Pottery

Santa Clara Pueblo artist Ethel Vigil has been making pottery since 1975. She is a daughter of Mida Tafoya and was most probably taught the art of pottery making by her mother.

Ethel Vigil (b.1950) was a granddaughter of Sara Fina Tafoya, and daughter of Christina Naranjo. Artistic talent certainly runs in the Tafoya family.
