Marie Suazo, Santa Clara Pueblo, Marie is the granddaughter of Rosita Velarde; daughter of Teresa Gutierrez; sister of Carol Velarde, Ivan Gutierrez, Doris Tenorio, Earl Gutierrez, and Tony Gutierrez, Jr. Suazo. Marie Suazo has been a consistent award winner at Santa Fe Indian Market since 1990 and she has been referenced and published in numerous books and articles. She is a very accomplished potter. Marie took a three-year break following the loss of her husband, who was her helper. Now she is back in the business and doing everything by herself, and she is doing an outstanding job. Suazo is accomplished at firing black and red pottery with equal efficiency.

Many potters at Santa Clara Pueblo produce black carved pottery but few achieve the deep cuts into the pottery wall that Suazo does. Additionally, to offset the design, she faintly outlines the edges of the cuts with a thin matte black line. Such a simple outline of the design greatly enhances its visual impact.

---Santa Clara Pueblo (Tewa: Kha\'po) is a census-designated place (CDP) in Rio Arriba County, New Mexico, United States. The population was 980 at the 2000 census, although, approximately 3,800 reside on the reservation. Santa Clara Pueblo was established about 1550.
The pueblo is a member of the Eight Northern Pueblos, and the people are from the Tewa ethnic group of Native Americans who speak the Tewa language. The pueblo is on the Rio Grande, between Ohkay Owingeh (formerly San Juan Pueblo) to the north and San Ildefonso Pueblo to the south. Santa Clara Pueblo is famous for producing hand-crafted pottery, specifically blackware and redware with deep engravings. The pueblo is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.22-1113
