She began working with clay at the age of 19, inspired by her aunt, Alvina Yepa who shared all the fundamentals of hand coiling traditional pottery with her. Alvina also taught Marcella which hills provided the best clay and taught her special techniques for constructing her pottery. * Marcella specializes in hand coiled contemporary carved melon pottery. She gathers her clay and other natural pigments from within Jemez Pueblo. In the traditional way, she soaks the clay, grinds it to a powder, cleans the clay, hand mixes, hand coils, shapes, carves the pottery, polishes her pottery with a stone and fires her pottery outdoors using cedar chips.
