Carol Lucero-Gachupin is from Jemez Pueblo and the Lucero family of potters which includes Margarita Lucero (mother), Mary R. Lucero, Mary I. Lucero, Virginia and Diane Lucero, and Marie Romero. Marie was her teacher and gave Carol her sound foundation in the creating of traditional Jemez pottery. Carol specializes in forms with Hopi, Navajo and Pueblo styles of hair and dress. Her babies are intelligent in appearance, reflected in the fact that many are reading books at an early age. The figures have blankets that flutter and skirts that flare out creating the effect of motion. She also places felt on the bottom of the pieces.

Carol's work is highly sophisticated and of finer detail than most which has earned her an excellent reputation for quality as well as higher prices for her work. A storyteller by Carol Lucero-Gachupin is worth every cent. Her work is featured in Gregory Schaaf's "Southern Pueblo Pottery: 2000 Artist Biographies" and"Southwest Pottery: Anasazi to Zuni" by Hayes and Blom.
