Ghost Stars by K Henderson

 

Ghost Stars by K. Henderson, 30 x 24, oil on linen

This Plains Indian wears eagle feathers in his hair to show the many honors he has won. His buckskin shirt is beaded and is painted as a Ghost Shirt would be painted.

He carries a shield and is draped with a trade blanket. The stripe on his face represents tears for the fallen warrior.

Beyond Tomorrow by K Henderson

Beyond Tomorrow,36 x 30, oil on linen

This Plains Indian woman wears a striped shawl (Trade Blanket).

Trade blankets have long been an integral part of Native American culture. They're used for clothing, bedding, warmth, ceremonial dances and gifts for important occasions.

 The original Indian trade blankets were the multi-striped point blankets imported by the Hudson's Bay Company from English woolen mills. Trade blankets were among the earliest items of exchange between American Indians and Europeans fur traders in the 1700's. From 1780 to 1890 the blanket was a staple in every fur trader's inventory and thousands upon thousands found their way into indigenous hands.

Buckaroo by K Henderson

Buckaroo, 40 x 20, oil on linen

In the not too distant past, before computers and big screen TV's we had small black and white televisions (or so I've been told). In the afternoons we watched The Lone Ranger, Zorro, Roy Rogers and a number of other Western Icons.

 And of course we wanted to grow up to be just like our Western Heroes. The first thing we needed was a cool outfit complete with hat and a pair of Six Shooters.

This Buckaroo is wearing all the right stuff for an afternoon of fighting the bad guys.

The Lone Ranger Rides Again

The Lone Ranger Rides Again, 40 x 30, oil on linen

The good folks at Lovetts Gallery in Tulsa requested I create a painting of The Lone Ranger. I thought it would be a good match for my Silver Screen Cowgirls series.

The Lone Ranger television series  ran from 1949 to 1957,  mostly starring Clayton Moore as the Lone Ranger.
