Ergil has been working with pottery since 1990. Ergil primarily specializes in the incised black pottery. He uses natural pollens and minerals to get the contrast in the brilliant colors on his designs which include: Hopi Kachinas, Mimbres animals, kiva steps, and geometric designs. Ergil signs his pottery as: Dalawepi, Acoma/Hopi, but in the past he signed it as Ergil Vallo, Acoma/Hopi.''
