Cafe Pasqual’s Gallery is excited to announce that we added mica clay artist, Alfred G Blea, who was trained by and worked directly with our Master potter Felipe Ortega. He strives to carry on his traditional methods of collecting and processing clay, to make beautiful functional pottery! Each piece is made by hand individually, coil and scrape method and pit fired

For the 5th consecutive year Alfred Blea will be returning to the Spanish Market in Santa Fe July 28th & 29th, 2018 at booth #117. Alfred has consistently had excellent showings in the competition component, establishing him as one of the top potters in the region, having won the following Traditional Pottery Juried Awards: 2018 – 1st Place & 2nd
