Hopi Indian Koshari Clown Kachina Doll by Native American artist Milton Howard

This Hopi Indian Koshari Clown Kachina Doll was made by Milton Howard, Hopi Indian, master Kachina carver. This Hopi Koshari Clown Kachina is superb in detail. The detail is exceptional. From the fine lines of the tassels, the detail in the pueblos to the carving of his knuckles. The time and effort and talent is evident with every stroke of this carver. Milton uses stain to bring out the natural wood grain of the customary cottonwood root, along with paint to enhance and show more detail. He takes the time, with what you can only imagine the patience it must demand, to feature and enhance every tiny detail line, as is the remarkably small lines he carves. This Hopi Indian Koshari Clown Kachina Doll is 9-3/4" tall, 3-3/4" wide and 6" long. Signed- M. Howard. Free Shipping does not apply to his item. Shipping for this item is $50.00.

Milton Howard, master kachina carver, was born on Feb. 8, 1964 in Tuba City, Arizona on the Navajo-Hopi reservation. He spent most of his adult life in Albuquerque where he began selling his carvings, and in Phoenix, where he perfected his art. He took up carving as a young boy, learning from members of his family. After moving to Phoenix, he began learning and practicing new techniques and styles, meanwhile, got to know some of the gallery owners and buyers in nearby Scottsdale, who were eager to purchase his dolls because of their high quality and low prices. At about 30 years of age he made the decision to start carving full time. His art is now found in the finest galleries around the world.
