Empowerment
As Nampeyo got older and her eyesight changed, it became difficult for her to paint the signature design motifs of the Sikyatki Revival style. Her oldest daughter Annie had already learned the art from her mother and the two of them began to collaborate, with Nampeyo forming the pots and Annie finishing them with painted designs.
