Born in 1982, Raven Skyriver started blowing glass in high school at the age of sixteen. Raven’s mentor, Lark Dalton, taught him how to build glass blowing equipment and trained him in the traditional Venetian technique. In 2003 Raven was invited to join the William Morris team. He worked on the team until Morris' retirement in 2007. The experience of working with such a talented group of artists galvanized his decision to follow Glass Sculpture as a profession.

Jody Naranjo’s pots are immediately recognizable – her hand-crafted vessels feature striking shapes and combine Native symbols with graphic simplicity. Her work is steeped in ancestry and legacy, and today she proudly carries on her heritage with a creative twist. Since the age of four, Naranjo has been working with clay at her ancestral homeland and birthplace, the Santa Clara Pueblo in New Mexico. It was here she learned the traditional methods of collecting and processing clay, hand-coiling forms, sgraffito carving, and firing pots under the mentorship of her mother Dolly Naranjo, grandmother Rose Naranjo, and aunts Nora Naranjo-Morse and Jody Folwell. Naranjo began attending the Santa Fe Indian Market with her family at the age of eight and has kept her same booth there ever since. Her signature cartoonish motifs were initially included in her work because of her three young daughters, but Naranjo soon discovered that the fun graphics appealed to more than just children. Naranjo and collectors alike appreciate these cheerful, artfully simple designs because they are worth smiling about. Her designs often include the animals, people, nature, and Pueblo scenes iconic to New Mexico. Her unique, upbeat and innovative art has earned her many first-prize ribbons and a loyal following of fans and collectors around the world.
