Joe Ortega is the son of famed Santa Fe "Santos" wood carver Ben Ortega. Ortega is also the brother-in-law of folk artist David
Alvarez, who is married to Joe's sister Louise. Folk carving comes
naturally to Joe and it is obvious when examining his work. With an
excellent natural instinct for carving and years of practice and work, Joe's art is without a question the work of a master carver.
