Charles Loloma is internationally known for his outrageously beautiful jewelry creations, but he was equally talented in making pottery and in paintings and lithography. He has often been overlooked in these latter categories, but he should not be. Multi-talented artists who are equally at ease in various mediums are not the norm. Some who come to mind are Michelangelo, Leonardo de Vinci, Allan Houser, and Charles Loloma. Of course there are others, but these stand out in most people's minds.
This lithograph the artist entitled "Single Loloma Cloud" features a spiritual Katsina supernatural above a single cloud overlooking the beings of the natural world. It is these important supernatural beings that provide rain and fertility for the Hopi and their crops.
