Dominique has looked up to these women for inspiration for many years, and she lives by what her grandmother taught her at a very early age, quality over quantity.

Maxine Toya started making pottery in her twenties. Her clay sculptures are inspirations of her mother, the late Marie G. Romero, and the sculptor, the late Allen Houser. She loves creating figures that are free flowing and that have a simplicity to them. She has recently started collaborating with her daughter, Dominique Toya, where she utilizes her painting skills. Maxine has won numerous awards for her pottery, including the collaborations with her daughter.
