Clay ArtistArtist Profile
Leonora Lupe Lucero-Loretto, “Sun Flower”, was born in 1943. She is half Jemez and half Laguna. Lupe began making her pottery sculptures at the age of 34, a talent inspired by her sister, Dorothy Trujillo.
Lupe specializes in handmade humorous Koshari storytellers but does not limit herself to that style. She also hand coils nativities and other clay sculptures. Lupe hand paints her art with natural colors and adds corn stalks to add a bit of flare to her work. Lupe signs her pottery: L Lupe L Lucero. She is related to Alma Concho, Marie Loretto, Fannie Loretto and the late Mary Toya (sisters).
