About Calvin Weeka
Calvin Weeka of Zuni Pueblo, NM crafts very fine and detailed fetish carvings, often in Picasso Marble.
His level of skill allows him to carve intricate detail into his fetish carvings, depicting an animal's fur or skin texture in a very realistic way. Often times, his animals will be shown standing on a rock or ground surface, as an all-in-one carving (the ground is not separate from the animal's body, and yet there is carved-out space between the animal and the ground).
Calvin Weeka's fetishes are sought-after by Zuni fetish collectors who appreciate a high level of detail and high-quality stone carving material.
