Debbie Clashin

Born in 1969 in the Hopi-Tewa tobacco clan, Debbie is the daughter of Lorena Clashin and Morris Clashin, Sr. Debbie grew up around pottery her whole life, but got invested in 2010 under her main teacher, Dianna Tahbo.  She then entered a piki bowl that won 1st Place ribbon for Utilitarian Pottery at the Santa Fe Indian Market in 2015. 
Debbie specializes in large jar bowls with small openings, and flattened seed pots. Her favorite designs to paint are stylized interpretations of ancient Hopi designs, especially bird elements. Debby is a traditionalist and continues the tradition of hand coiling with native clays and slips and firing outside.
