Bernice learned her pottery skills from her father and brother Corn Moquino and James Moquino. "I enjoy creating artwork, because I watched my father Corn Moquino when I was Young. I enjoyed drawing, I started playing with clay. It became an extension of my soul. Making pottery soothes me and brings me peace. It's a part of me and when the Lord decides to take me from this earth, a part of me will always live on in my art. My brother James Moquino taught me how to form a wedding vase. I thank my brother every time I create a wedding vase." -Bernice Moquino Source: Pueblo Indian Pottery: 750 Artist Biographies by Gregory Schaaf.
