Beginning in the mid-1970’s Marty apprenticed with ethnographic artist Ivan Gundrum, creating museum quality reproductions of Southeastern Native American artifacts. He established Ancient Hands to carry on with Mr Gundrums work, expanding the collections to nearly 300 pieces, and experimenting with indigenous clays, pit-firing and burnishing. The original artifacts are one-of-a-kind and most are in storage, unavailable for viewing by the public. Marty works with museums and archaeologists to reconstruct artifacts and to provide museum stores with reproductions available to the public. For a catalog and price list, contact Marty.
