Art Little Elk Tequaecshe, born in 1936, is a potter from Santa Clara Pueblo (Kha’p’o Owingeh) in New Mexico. Santa Clara is renowned for its traditional hand-coiled pottery, particularly blackware and redware featuring deep carving, sgraffito (etched) designs, and polished surfaces. Common motifs include the avanyu (water serpent), bear paws, feathers, and geometric patterns, often reflecting Pueblo cultural symbols.

Tequaecshe’s work follows this tradition, with pieces typically described as etched pottery jars. These are finely crafted, showcasing intricate sgraffito designs on polished black or red vessels.
