Artist Bio:

Dean Haungooah is the son of noted potters Art Cody Haungooah (1943- 1983) and Martha Suazo. He has continued in his father's style of tightly carved sgraffito pottery with very detailed imagery.

His father, Art Cody, was known as Haungooah - Kiowa Sioux of Oklahoma. He shared the name Haungooah with his grandfather, a legendary 19th century Army Scout and ledger artist.

Art Cody married Santa Clara Pueblo Indian Martha Suazo in the late 1960s and moved to the Pueblo where they collaborated on tiny pottery, she made them and he carved them. They began winning prizes with their very first miniatures.

Unfortunately they both died at young ages, she of an illness, he in a car wreck, in the mid-1980s.
