"Fry Bread to Go" by Susan Kliewer 15/45 depicting a bucking mule with a Hopi family trying to get him under control. Hand signed on base dated 1999. On rotating wood base measures 17 1/2" x 19 1/2" including base. Susan Kliewer, a native of California, has lived in Arizona for nearly 30 years, five of them at Marble Canyon Trading Post in a remote area of Northern Arizona near the Colorado River. Dreams of horses, deserts, canyons, rivers and sunsets have been her constant companions since she was a child. Susan won a competition to create a monument of Sedona Schnebly, in honor of one of the founders of Sedona, Arizona. The ten-foot tall bronze figure was installed in front of the Sedona Library in 1994. Kliewer's life-size fountain portraying the Sinagua people and a fountain of a Hopi Water Maiden are also to be found in Sedona. "My work" Kliewer says, "aims to show the common thread that underlies all human experience, and which I hope brings us to a greater understanding between all peoples." Susan often uses her Navajo friends as models, and has attracted major collectors from all over the world.
