Starting on a new "Black Ogre" Hopi Katsina painting for my solo show in Prescott, AZ in late May. History: Male Pueblo Indians in New Mexico/Arizona would dress up as Nataska (Nata-aska) and visit the homes of families with children and whip a saw around and demand gifts, warning that if the gift is unsatisfactory or if the children are bad, they will return to eat the children. #DavidLozeau #Arizona #lowbrowart #tempe #tempeAZ #tempearizona #tempeartfest #skeletonart #dayofthedead #dayofthedeadart #diadelosmuertos #diadelosmuertosart #ArtLife #prescott #prescottaz #prescottvalley #prescottarizona #kachina #katsina #hopi #blackogrekatsin #legend #blackogre #nativeamericanlore #puebloIndians (at San Jose Convention Center)
