Esta Bain is an American ceramic artist based in New Mexico, known for her handbuilt clay sculptures inspired by Southwestern and Native American themes, such as storytellers (figures of elders or mothers with children representing oral traditions), water carriers, masks, crosses, and decorative plaques. 

Her work often features red clay with colorful glazes, textured surfaces (like broom-swept finishes), and motifs that convey warmth, strength, and cultural heritage. She has been creating pottery for over 30 years, with pieces that are typically one-of-a-kind and signed.
