Description

The buffalo has long been revered for its strength, beauty and presence across this nation. There is a connection to this land with our understanding of what has been given to us. In this work, there is a lone buffalo walking through the moonlit trees, reflecting its presence in that moment. The light, color and use of lines connect the space with life.

About the Artist

I am a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, and grew up in Colorado. My inspiration comes from nature and cultural patterns. I find inspiration in the shapes, textures, lines, and colors that I see all around me. My painting reflects experiences, memories and impressions of spending time outdoors. The skies over the mountains create amazing colors that reflect moments of time. I use vivid colors in my work to communicate seasons or time of day. One of my favorite times of day is the twilight sky, which reflects light and color, leaving mysterious shadows and spaces. I often include pathways with color, texture, and lines that lead the viewer into the composition. I use layers of color, lines and texture in my work that invite the viewer to look a bit closer. I create surface texture with brushstrokes, layers of color, and lines that create shadow edges, incorporating pockets of color and light in each painting.
