Barbara and Joseph Cerno are known for their large olla pots with painted patterns of traditional parrots, an art that was essentially self-taught.  The Cernos specialize in traditional Acoma pottery using Mother Earth to make their pottery.  They have studied the ancient pottery shards found within many ruins in the pueblo, so they keep within the traditional styles of their ancestors. They have dedicated many hours of trial and error to perfect the skill and artistry necessary to make quality pottery. Joseph and Barbara are widely recognized as the creators of pottery products which truly reflect the traditional style of their Indian ancestors.
