He married Cynthia Vela, also a UIW graduate, in 1975, and they enjoyed 40 years together. After finding his artistic passion in creating beautiful, handmade, one of a kind pottery, Walt and Cynthia opened their shop, Village Gallery, in San Antonio's historic La Villita and a production studio in McQueeney, Texas. He and Cynthia loved participating in craft fairs around the country with a special fondness for the "Starving Artists Show" along the San Antonio River Walk and La Villita. They enjoyed a successful artistic venture for over forty years and their pottery has been appreciated across the globe. His unique pottery was collected by dignitaries from around the world, including the Queen of England, Ronald Reagan, and other notables, as well as being featured by San Antonio's sister city in Japan. As a master potter, Walt enjoyed mentoring professional potters from around the world, sharing his technique and skill. Later in his career, he loved teaching Ceramics at Texas Lutheran University in Seguin, Texas where he contributed both in and out of the classroom.

Warren Cullar "Arm Chair Dreams" Acrylic on Canvas Austin Texas Listed Artist<br>12" x 16" with no issues or damage.<br><br>Warren Cullar opened his first art gallery as a senior in college. After<br>receiving a BFA in 1965, he joined a staff of six artists in a commercial ad<br>agency and as he says: “I learned more in that one year than I did in 5 years in<br>college." A bigger job was offered to him and he spent a brief career as an<br>advertising director in a large department store. A move to Mexico to study art<br>at the Instituto Allende in San Miguel de Allende was a major influence. The<br>color of Mexico is evident throughout the art he has produced during his career.<br>With an MFA degree under his belt, he received a teaching contract from Hardin<br>Simmons University in Abilene, Texas and later opened the art department at<br>Western Texas College, completing 8 years of experience as a college art<br>instructor.<br><br><br>After spending the summer of 1976 in Egypt on a study grant that he had received<br>from the college, he made the decision to become a full-time professional<br>artist. He came to the Austin area and opened an art gallery and 5 years later<br>moved into the Austin home he has now occupied for over 30 years.<br><br>Warren started his art career by selling his hand pulled stone lithographs and<br>watercolors. In the December 1978 issue of Southwest Art Magazine, he was<br>featured in an 11-page article about his art. He continued to produce<br>watercolors and enjoyed selling his work in art fairs in Texas, Colorado, and<br>California.<br><br>In 1982 he read a magazine article about the need for an adventure artist and<br>began traveling the world using his skills as an artist on scientific<br>expeditions in Peru, Brazil, Venezuela, Spain, and Easter Island, to name a few<br>of the 49 countries stamped in his passport. Warren travels the world with a<br>sketchbook and watercolors to record his impressions of the various cultures and<br>peoples he encounters.<br><br>In the early 90’s he built an 840 sq. ft. painting studio on the back of his<br>wooded property and took up acrylic painting; then he produced hand-pulled<br>serigraphs and soft ground etchings. One of his collectors asked him to create a<br>sculpture for women who had survived breast cancer. The sculpture was completed<br>and he was captivated by working with clay. That was the first bronze he had<br>created since his student days in Mexico. A large bronze commission was awarded<br>to him and a new direction emerged. Today Warren laughs at the thought that for<br>20 years painting in watercolor was all he ever wanted to do. In 2004 he built a<br>second studio dedicated to sculpture.<br><br>Today, Warren and his wife, Kitty Biel, who has a dual career as an independent<br>CPA , Cruise Planner, and Travel Agent, live and work from their spacious home,<br>two studios and sculpture garden in Austin, Texas. You can find Kitty working in<br>her treetop office on the second floor of their home and Warren creating in the<br>sculpture or painting studio.<br>alt<br><br><br>Warren is an accomplished sculptor and painter, and he extends the opportunity<br>for you to visit, explore his galleries/studios and gardens. You will quickly<br>discover that he simply loves to create and recognizes opportunities to do so in<br>all areas of their space, from the kitchen mosaic on the breakfast room floor to<br>the backsplash in the kitchen made from fish fossils he dug in Wyoming. Warren’s<br>passion for creativity and his seemingly boundless energy keep him constantly<br>moving forward in new directions. In addition to creating new paintings and<br>sculpture, Warren’s goals for the immediate future include finding new<br>opportunities for young artists and he has already coordinated an apprentice<br>program with the local high schools. Warren says “I collect friends who in turn<br>collect my art."<br>tw106

William Waldo Dodge Westport Yacht Club hammered sterling silver creamer trophy. Weight and measurements in pictures, a zillion times nicer than the pictures suggest. Amazing work of art with no damage or significant wear. William Waldo Dodge, Jr. (1895-1971), architect and craftsman, was one of the leading figures in Ashevilles architectural scene as well as an illustrious and well-known silversmith. He was part of an important larger movement in Asheville that expressed the influences of the romantic and Arts and Crafts movements in a variety of media from architecture to silver, pottery, weaving, and other arts. His personalized work attracted liberal patronage, even during the Great Depression, from clients who could still afford to build, and his buildings remain treasured expressions of his craftsmanly approach to architecture. Dodge was born in Washington, D. C. in 1895, the son of William W. and Margaret Parker Dodge. His father was a patent attorney who headed a successful family legal practice in the nations capital. William, Jr., attended the Friends School in Washington and then Philips-Exeter Academy in New Hampshire. He was sent to Princeton University to prepare for a career in law, but after a year decided that he did not want to be an attorney and enrolled at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to study architecture. He was graduated from MIT with a Bachelor of Architecture in 1916. From Cambridge, with World War I looming, he went to Plattsburg, New York, and enrolled in officers training school. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant and sent to France as a member of the American Expeditionary Force. Wounded in battle, he was awarded a Silver Star and Purple Heart. Exposure to chlorine gas during the war aggravated Dodges tubercular condition, and after the war, he was treated at the veterans hospital at Oteen near Asheville, North Carolina, a community long regarded as having a climate and surroundings beneficial to patients afflicted with lung diseases. This assignment brought Dodge to the Asheville area, where he spent most of the rest of his life. At Oteen he taught crafts to fellow patients and developed an interest in silver and copper smithing. After he was released from the hospital, Dodge moved to Connecticut and married Margaret Robinson, but a relapse forced him to enter Gaylord Tuberculosis Sanitorium. While he was convalescing there, the Dodges studied silversmithing. After his discharge, the couple moved to Asheville, where Dodge briefly taught physics and mechanical drawing at the Asheville Boys School. He opened a silversmith shop on Charlotte Street in Asheville and created over the years a unique and widely admired body of artistic silver work. Early in the 1920s, a prominent Asheville citizen asked Dodge to design a residence for him, and Dodge planned for him the lavish Tudor Revival style Hammond-Knowlton House (1925). Drawing upon his training at MIT, Dodd added architectural practice to his silversmiths craft. With Asheville in the midst of a boom period, he found abundant opportunities and in 1927 moved to a shop he designed and built in the new suburban community of Biltmore Forest, developed on a portion of the Biltmore Estate. An account of Dodges practice was published in the American Architect in November, 1928, illustrating his silverware, workshop, and studio, and describing him as “an architect by profession and a craftsman by avocation. In 1929 Dodge obtained a license to practice architecture in North Carolina, and he continued to attract or find commissions during the Great Depression. Blending English, French, and rustic elements already favored in the mountain city, where the mountain setting and the romantic (and French) aura of Biltmore exerted strong influences, Dodge rendered these themes in picturesque compositions enriched with handcrafted detailing that appealed to the wealthy residents of Asheville and Biltmore Forest. His own shop and other small buildingsincluding repurposed log cabins from the regiondisplay his intricately crafted details and rustic motifs on a modest scale, while larger houses such as the William A. Knight House II in Biltmore Forest combine brick, stucco, stone, and wood, and individually designed details of wood carvings, hinges, sculptures, and more to evoke the spirit of a French chateau. In 1942, facing the wartime hiatus in private construction, he and five other western North Carolina architects banded together to form the architectural firm of Six Associates to enable them to compete for defense contracts and other large projects. Although the firm continued and expanded after the war, in 1947 Dodge withdrew to resume his own practice, which he pursued until his retirement in 1956. His son William Waldo Dodge, III, followed him in the profession with a large practice in Raleigh. Note: A large collection entitled the William Waldo Dodge Architectural Drawings, 1916-1989 (MC 00372) was donated in 2010 to the Special Collections Research Center at NCSU Libraries. Although most of the drawings are from the firm of Dodge III, there are several by Dodge, Jr., especially from the post-World War II period. When processing is complete and further field checking can be done, additional entries will be inserted in the building list. In the meantime readers may consult the preliminary inventory at http://library.ncsu.edu/findingaids/mc00372.

Willie Yazzie Sr, Navajo vintage sterling silver bear paw belt buckle. Tested and guaranteed solid sterling silver. Weight and measurements in pictures, circa third quarter of the 20th century. Fits a 1.5" belt. After the success of the overlay designs made at the Hopi Guild many other silversmiths and shops incorporated overlay in their designs (see Overlay is Not Always Hopi Made). Navajo trader Dean Kirk opened his own trading post at Manuelito, New Mexico (between Gallup and the Arizona border) by January 1941. The silver work made in Dean’s shop was typically Navajo tourist type designs and hallmarked UITA22 (under the auspices of the United Indian Traders Association) until about 1951. That’s when Kirk designed a series of overlay pins to be made by Navajo smiths in his employ incorporating Hohokam and Mimbres designs. These designs proved to be very popular, as a 1958 newspaper advertisement for Enchanted Mesa in Albuquerque promoted “Dean Kirk’s Navajo Overlay Silver”. The overlay pieces made at Kirk’s shop were rarely hallmarked.However, one of the Navajo silversmiths who worked for Dean Kirk was Willie Yazzie, he made his own hallmark and used it on pieces he made in Kirk’s shop.Much of the following information was relayed to Alan Ferg (archivist and archaeologist at Arizona State Museum) by William P. (Willie) Yazzie, Jr, in February 2018. Ferg’s investigation of an overlay belt buckle in his possession, lacking a hallmark, has led to previously unrecorded information about Willie Yazzie, as well as the identification of an additional hallmark used by the artist.Willie Yazzie made the overlay bolo at Dean Kirk’s shop, it includes a deer and stylized Hopi designs; a small piece of turquoise is inlaid flush in the deer’s body. His Navajo wedding basket pin incorporates a small piece of copper to symbolize the red band in traditional wedding baskets. Willie Yazzie made the overlay bolo at Dean Kirk’s shop, it includes a deer and stylized Hopi designs; a small piece of turquoise is inlaid flush in the deer’s body. His Navajo wedding basket pin incorporates a small piece of copper to symbolize the red band in traditional wedding baskets.According to Social Security records, Willie A. Yazzie was born at Chinle, Arizona in 1928. His son says he learned silverwork at Dean Kirk’s trading post in Manuelito in the early 1950s, and created his touchmark (or hallmark) no later than 1960, and after that time his pieces made at Dean Kirk’s would have included his gourd dipper hallmark. His designs often incorporated animal figures such as roadrunners or Navajo designs including Yeis and Father Sky. He never added “tamp work,” or a textured pattern to the background designs.In 1960 Ansel Hall, concessionaire at Mesa Verde National Park, was looking for a silversmith to demonstrate at the park during the summers months, Dean Kirk recommended Willie Yazzie and he was hired by Hall. Willie worked at Mesa Verde in the summers from 1960 to 1983, except for 1965 when he was sick. Yazzie created a special hallmark to denote pieces he made at Mesa Verde. The mark depicts Square Tower House, a ruin within the park, and was included with his gourd dipper mark during the summers of 1960-1964 and 1966-1983.

Willie Yazzie, Sr. (Navajo), 1928-1999 Overlay silver pins (2) Largest 2", 18.9 grams total weight. <br><br>Navajo Overlay Artist Willie Yazzie<br><br>After the success of the overlay designs made at the Hopi Guild many other<br>silversmiths and shops incorporated overlay in their designs (see Overlay is Not<br>Always Hopi Made). Navajo trader Dean Kirk opened his own trading post at<br>Manuelito, New Mexico (between Gallup and the Arizona border) by January 1941.<br>The silver work made in Dean’s shop was typically Navajo tourist type designs<br>and hallmarked UITA22 (under the auspices of the United Indian Traders<br>Association) until about 1951. That’s when Kirk designed a series of overlay<br>pins to be made by Navajo smiths in his employ incorporating Hohokam and Mimbres<br>designs. These designs proved to be very popular, as a 1958 newspaper<br>advertisement for Enchanted Mesa in Albuquerque promoted “Dean Kirk’s Navajo<br>Overlay Silver”. The overlay pieces made at Kirk’s shop were rarely hallmarked.<br><br>However, one of the Navajo silversmiths who worked for Dean Kirk was Willie<br>Yazzie, he made his own hallmark and used it on pieces he made in Kirk’s shop.<br><br>Much of the following information was relayed to Alan Ferg (archivist and<br>archaeologist at Arizona State Museum) by William P. (Willie) Yazzie, Jr, in<br>February 2018. Ferg’s investigation of an overlay belt buckle in his possession,<br>lacking a hallmark, has led to previously unrecorded information about Willie<br>Yazzie, as well as the identification of an additional hallmark used by the<br>artist.<br><br>According to Social Security records, Willie A.

Wilson Jim Navajo silver and turquoise pendant. Measurements in pics.All precious metals are tested and guaranteed. A Native American jewelry piece referred to as "silver" or "ingot" is guaranteed to be at least 90% silver. I rarely use the word "sterling" when referring to older Native American silver or really any older silver jewelry as silver contents vary and "sterling" is 92.5% silver. No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn't an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I've seen thousands of pieces xrf'd to prove this. Bracelets are photographed on a 6" women's wrist.
