Tony Da Painting - C3700Tony Da (1940-2008) Anthony Edward Da was a painter before becoming a potter.  His earliest paintings appear to be from 1957, the year before he graduated from High School.  He continued painting until 1966 when he moved in to live with his grandmother, Maria Martinez.  At that time, Maria began teaching him the rudiments of pottery making and he developed into an accomplished potter in less than three years and his painting career slowed dramatically at that time.  He made pottery on a full-time basis and painted only occasionally.
