Preston Duwyenie (often spelled Duwyenie; the query spelling "Dunyenic" is a common variant) is a renowned contemporary Hopi potter from Hotevilla on Third Mesa, Arizona (born 1951). He is best known for his innovative "shifting sands" style pottery, where he carves or etches fine parallel lines into the surface to evoke windblown desert dunes. Many of his pieces incorporate micaceous slips (giving a sparkly effect), corrugated textures, or inlaid sterling silver elements (often with his signature shifting sands design in the silver). He frequently collaborates with his wife, Santa Clara potter Debra Duwyenie, and has won major awards, including Best of Show at venues like the Heard Museum Guild Indian Fair & Market.
