Red Pot and Peppers Still Life by K. Henderson

Red Pot and Peppers, 30 x 30, oil on canvas
 

It's been a while since I've created one of my 'Pot' still lifes. I've always enjoyed painting them so I felt it was time for a new one.

This painting has 3 pots, red peppers and a photo of an American Indian woman.

This painting is available directly from me for a limited time. And as always I pay for shipping within the USA.

Straight Arrow by K Henderson

Straight Arrow, 30 x 40,  oil on linen

"Nabisco Shredded Wheat presents Straight Arrow, a thrilling new adventure story from the exciting days of the Old West!"  That's how the radio show opened twice a week.

"Straight Arrow was a Western designed for kids. The show was broadcast between 1948 and 1951. Howard Culver played Steve Adams in the series. Steve was a ranch owner who really was a Comanche Indian named "Straight Arrow". He wore his Indian garb and rode a palomino horse named "Fury" while he fought outlaws."

This Straight Arrow board game was manufactured by Selchow & Righter co. in 1950. Included in the painting is a spinner from the game, a wooden Tomahawk and a feathered headdress.

Flames of Many Colors by K Henderson

Flames of Many Colors, 24 x 30, oil on linen

I had an urge to depart from my usual neutral colored background. Yep, this is colorful.

The title comes from a Quote from Black Elk Speaks, by John G. Neihardt

"And as he spoke of understanding, I looked up and saw the rainbow leap with flames of many colors over me."

The American Indian girl wears a striped shawl. An eagle feather adorns her hair.

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.
