Description
A few weeks ago, I had the immense pleasure of meeting Bradford
Phillips’ son Delbert. Bradford had called me earlier to say that his son had
carved a doll and wanted to sell it to me. We met at Miz Zip’s here in
Flagstaff for lunch, and Delbert unwrapped this BEAUTIFUL Pahlik’mana
sculpture. His work is much like his father’s, and the line quality and
self-confidence of his work awe-inspiring. I am Proud to present to you this
absolutely superb sculpture. Carved in a very contemporary style, she stands 12
inches tall. Her body consists of a spiral cloak, enfolding a mesa-top village.
Delbert’s carving is beautiful, delicate and polished, his painting muted and
subtle. I am certain this young carver has a very bright future ahead of him.

Rich
