Pablita Velarde: Painting Her People

by Marcella J. Ruch

Book Overview

This beautiful art book combines the historical memoir of a beloved artist with her art, featuring 28 paintings in full colour, some previously unpublished and rarely seen. The author spent many hours with Pablita Velarde recording her stories as first person reminiscences, which the artist has fully endorsed. These anecdotes go back to Pablita's childhood Pueblo life, to her mother's early death from TB, and starting at St. Catherine's Indian School...
