Fears Nothing



Fears Nothing, 20 x 30, oil on linen

This painting shows a Plains Indian with a black hand (coup mark) painted on his face. This is a sign of Bravery. To be first to touch the enemy was regarded as the bravest deed of all, it was even a point of bravado for a single warrior to rush in among the enemy and strike one with quirt, coup stick or gun before attempting to fire, thus risking his own life.

Destiny Giclee Print



This Plains Indian is wearing a scarf slide made of German Silver.  When fur traders first made contact with  American Indians they traded small items in exchange for furs. Silver objects were one of the items that were popular.
Eventually, items were made expressly for the purpose of trading. Around the mid 19th century these items were made from "German Silver",  an inexpensive silver-white alloy containing copper and zinc and nickel.


Three sizes of Prints available: 19" x 23", 15" x 18", 10" x12"  Image Sizes are Approximate and not exact! In addition, there is a 1/2" white border around the image so the print can be easily matted. This is a Giclee Print on high-grade Epson Enhanced Matte paper.

Commissioned Painting

Commissioned Painting, "Willie", 30 x 40, oil on linen

Last fall I was commission to create a painting for a Willie Nelson fan.  Lovetts gallery in Tulsa OK just sent this image to me. A custom display easel in the shape of a guitar was made for the painting. Cool! (I did a quick Photoshop tweek on the image to take out some of the back ground so don't blame the gallery for the funky photo)

Storm in the Heart

Storm in the Heart, 23 x 30, oil on linen

This Plains Indian Warrior has a painted face and wears eagle feathers in his hair.

What is the meaning of the face paint in my American Indian paintings?

American Indians painted their faces for decorative purposes and for protection against the wind, sun, snow and insects. Designs of various kinds were used to designate membership in certain societies, to prepare for ceremonies, to mark achievement and to mourn the dead. When used for personal ornamentation there was no guide to the way the paint should be applied beyond the fancy of the wearer or for personal identification.
