| 55 | Hester | Burtka | f | Salazar Martínez supported her ten children by selling woven goods as well as flowers and vegetables from her garden. She developed natural dyes from crops she grew, and began improvising on the traditional designs she had learned. "Doña Agueda" was in her late sixties when she began teaching weaving in a home education program. At 77 she won her first blue ribbon at the New Mexico State Fair; that same year, she was recognized with a Governor's Award for Excellence in the Arts, and her rugs were displayed in the state house. In 1977, Salazar Martinez was featured in an Oscar-nominated short documentary, Agueda Martinez: Our People, Our Country, directed by Esperanza Vásquez, and produced by Moctesuma Esparza. She was the guest of honor at 1980's inaugural Feria Artesana in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She traveled to Washington, D. C. with her daughter, granddaughter, and great-granddaughter to demonstrate their craft at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival in 1986. And in 1993 she was the first Hispanic artist recognized with a Women's Caucus for Art Lifetime Achievement Award. A New York Times critic mentioned Martínez as the "acknowledged matriarch" of the weaving community in Northern New Mexico. | Agueda Salazar was married to Eusebio Martinez in 1916; the couple had ten children together. She was widowed in 1962, and died in 2000, at age 102, in Medanales, New Mexico. Five of her daughters, including Eppie Archuleta, became professional weavers after her example. Works by Agueda Salazar Martinez can be found in the Smithsonian Institution and the Museum of International Folk Art. A historic marker in Rio Arriba County, New Mexico honors Agueda S. Martínez with the quote, "You Will Find Me Dancing on the Loom." | Salazar Martínez supported her ten children by selling woven goods as well as flowers and vegetables from her garden.
