Doug Hyde's bronze sculpture Blue Ribbon at Santa Fe Market captures the quiet dignity of a Pueblo potter presenting her award-winning creation. Measuring just under ten inches in height, this beautifully proportioned piece portrays a seated artisan, her expertly crafted pot resting in her hands. The scene is a familiar one in Santa Fe, reminiscent of the merchants who line the Santa Fe Plaza outside the Palace of the Governors.
Hyde's mastery of form and subtle patina work adds depth to the sculpture. The potter's hair and vessel are finished in a darker patina, creating a striking contrast against the warm bronze tones of her figure. The simplicity of the design enhances its elegance, reflecting the timeless artistry of Pueblo pottery.
This bronze, edition #10 of 35, is signed and numbered on the back.

His work is widely exhibited and highly regarded in the world of Native American art.
