Artist Jody Armijo

December 16, 2016

I wanted to feature the work of Artist Jody Armijo who lives in Ocate, New Mexico.

We told his story in our documentary On The Land. I just delivered one of his pieces, an altar, to a friend here in Austin.

He makes crosses, altars, necklaces, scarfs and many more pieces. Jody’s artwork can be found at Pooh’s Store
