From the Southwestern Americana Collection Scottsdale AZ we have an Apache Mana Pottery by Immanual ''Mana'' Trujillo (May 25, 1928 - June 24, 2010), measures 2.75''L x 1.75''W x .5''H, signed on bottom ''Mana 1948-1985 Arizona New York USA'', Artist Bio: Immanuel ''Mana'' Trujillo is the heart of Mana Pottery. A World War II veteran who suffered a bomb blast that caused traumatic brain injury and PTSD, Trujillo was transferred in 1948 to a hospital in Fort Sheridan, Illinois. Here he discovered an empty crafts room and began developing a career that would span the next 60 years. Over the last six decades, deep in the heart of Aravaipa Valley in southeastern Arizona, Mana Pottery has been producing unique and stunning American Southwestern art. Multi-colored, hand painted renditions of desert life on handcrafted earthenware provide an inspiring visual feast in the context of everyday functionality.Immanuel TrujilloMay 25, 1928 - June 24, 2010
