Anderson Jamie Peynetsa is the son of Anderson Peynetsa and Avelia Peynetsa. Among his aunts are Priscilla Peynetsa and Agnes Peynetsa, also well-known Zuni potters. Born in 1997, Anderson is an up and coming young potter. He's been making pots since he was 11 years old, and says his inspiration to make pottery comes from watching his father making pottery as he grew up.

He participated in his first show in 2008, the SWAIA Santa Fe Indian Market, and went home with a 1st Place ribbon in the Junior Pottery Division.

Jamie's favorite shapes are either contemporary (he sometimes makes duck pots) or traditional Hawikuh-revival styles. His favorite designs are a mix of modern fine line and traditional Zuni designs.

He works with his mother on much of his pottery and she makes the pieces and he paints the designs.


Avelia Peynetsa, born in 1964, is the great-granddaughter of Catalina Zunie; wife of Anderson Peynetsa; mother of Ashley Peynetsa. Avelia learned pottery making from Jennie Laate. Avelia Peynetsa also often collaborates with her husband Anderson Peynetsa and signs her pottery with AA Peynetsa.
