Daniel “Sunshine” Reeves
was born in Twin Lakes, New Mexico in 1966.
In a family of SILVERSMITHS,
Reeves is one of the STAR Indian jewelers of today. His older brothers taught him the craft at age 24.
He is the winner of numerous awards, including Santa Fe Indian Market and Gallup Intertribal Ceremonial to name just a few of the many awards he’s taken.
His work is also featured in many renowned museum’s across the world, including the
Peabody Museum, Harvard University and the Heard Museum

Most people have no idea how complex the process is to create these unique art forms,” says Sunshine Reeves. His work is more than simply a piece of jewelry or a box -- it is an art form.
His complex and precise stamp work is very distinctive.
