Joy Navasie

Joy (Frogwoman) Navasie (1919 - 2012) was active/lived in Arizona.  Joy Navasie is known for White slipped Hopi pottery.

Joy Navasie (1919, Hopi-Tewa - 2012) (also known as second Frog Woman or Yellow Flower) is a Pueblo potter. As well as the art of pottery, the name Frog Woman was passed down from her mother, Paqua Naha.

Navasie carries on the white ware pottery tradition from her mother, which she contends was developed around 1951 or 1952. She is particularly known for her black and red on white designs, and her favorite motifs include rain, clouds, parrots, and feathers. She also produces well received pottery with challenging Kachina designs.
