Tewa Horse Figurine Born to a family of artists and craftsmen from the Tesuque Pueblo in New Mexico Tom (a tribal policeman) wanted to incorporate some of the traditional images that have been handed down from generation to generation into a design that was contemporary in feeling and rich with symbolism. To do this he combined various animal abstractions with geometric patterns. The sash represents good fortune. The blanket honors the horse as a bold and strong being. The eagle is a symbol of prosperity. The handprint stands for the loving touch of all creation. Resin Measures 6" Artist: Tom Tapia

This pony was my first Painted Pony. When I was a child, I collected "horse statues", as they were called, and had a nice collection. However, they were quite plain compared with these beauties. The most difficult thing was choosing which one to start with, but I have decided I am glad I chose the Native American themed ponies. I now have four, and love each one. They are displayed in my entertainment center with my other Native American pieces of other types.

Was giving as a gift at Christmas,(the 6"er), to go with some of the other kinds of horses that I have collected over the years. It is a wonderful example of native american art. The blanket reminds me of some of the Navajo rugs that are in my parents house. I was also the only son to get one of these for Christmas. MaMa loves me the best. This will not be the last one that I will get.

Besides Wildfire, Tewa is my second favorite pony. I have him in the larger version also. I just love his detail and embellishments! The way he is painted is so very striking!! His base is wonderfully detailed. He will be a great addition to your collection!
