Holiday works

2006-12-26T09:13:00.000-08:00

The Christmas Holiday is over, internet orders were all filled and shipped. Now we are starting to plan for 2007. We booked a Horse Show in Montgomery Alabama for the last weekend in January at Garrett Coliseum January 27 & 28. This will be something a little different for us, since we normally do just Native American events.

I am planning a couple of new paintings to start work on this week, but it is sometimes hard to get started back to real work after being off for the Holidays. As long as the Blahs don't take over, I will probably be alright. Sometimes I have to force creativity out, rather than wait for it take hold on its own.

Arthritis and Art

2006-12-20T10:44:00.000-08:00

Yesterday I posted about Native Medicine being added to our site "Cherokee Indian Art". About six years ago I was diagnosed with degenerative arthritis after being laid up for a month barely able to move. Indian Health service gave me some small green pain killers that killed the pain got me vertical but left me in a zombie like state.

I was then pointed in the much better direction, by someone, who had found themselves in a similar situation, to Herbal Arthritis Treatments. Since then I have been able to work and continue to produce and sell my art. Read More....

Native Medicine

2006-12-20T07:44:00.000-08:00

We have added Native Medicine to our website. Native Peoples have used natures herbal remedies for countless generations. We use herbals to treat our arthritis and other ailments. When Dad sent me to fetch a weed for stomach upset, it was no big deal. He had shown me what weed did this or that and I knew what to get. Today herbal remedies are readily available and can be purchased online from a reliable source. Read More....

At Home in Cherokee County

2006-07-23T12:53:00.000-07:00

WE KNEW WE WERE BACK IN OKLAHOMA CAUSE. .
The birds were using potholders to pull worms out of the ground.

The trees were whistling for the dogs.

The best parking places are being determined by shade instead of distance.

Hot water now comes out of both taps.

You can make sun tea instantly.

We learned that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding iron!

The temperature drops below 95 and I feel a little chilly.

I discovered that in July it only takes 2 fingers to steer the car.

I actually burned my hand opening the car door. Ouch!

I break into a sweat the instant I step outside at 7:30 in the morning.

My biggest fear of riding a bycycle is, "What if I get knocked out and end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"

Oklahoma Asphalt has a liquid state.

The potatoes are cooked underground, all you have to do is pull one out and add butter, salt and pepper.

OklahomA Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying boiled eggs.

Oklahoma cows are giving evaporated milk.

Ah, its great to be home!

New work is now available on the web

2006-04-25T10:46:00.000-07:00

There are several new pieces available on the internet in Studio 5 . Printed with archival inks, on archival paper, with a paper cast of archival materials these pieces of art will last for generations. Included are four new Trail of Tears as well as horses and tipis. "Tears Through the Snow" pictured here is an 18"x40" Framed Limited Edition Print with Papercast an edition of 250. Depicting the brutal removal of the Cherokee People in the winter of 1838-39. Sixteen thousand Cherokees were marched overland to Indian Territory. During the forced march across a frozen land, thousands of Cherokees died. The hardships suffered by the Cherokee people as they were forced to walk what later would be named The Trail of Tears, to a new home in Indian Territory, would be forever remembered. The strength of these unforgotten people is the legacy that has allowed the Cherokee Nation to persevere through its many trials.

Working on Cherokee Art

2006-04-20T14:59:00.000-07:00

I've spent the day updating and linking new pages and new artwork, things like Trail of Tears prints paintings and papercasts.
The image here is from an original oil painting that we only recently did limited edition prints of.
The title is Morning Tears. I also added a new Studio 5 showing this and several other new items.

Getting Ready

2006-04-17T12:56:00.000-07:00

We are getting ready for our spring trip East. We always go out and add stock to the shops and Galleries that carry our work every Spring. We will be calling on the folks at the Qualla Arts and Crafts at Cherokee North Carolina as well as Harrah's Cherokee Casino. While we are in Cherokee we plan to visit The Native American Craft Shp and Talking Leaves Bookstore.

When we leave Cherokee we will head north thru Virginia calling on shops and stopping along the way to see friends like Jim and Beth at The Silver Phoenix an New Market, Va. They have a great stor just off the interstate, if your ever by there the have plenty of parking even if your in an RV.

Finally after that we will go by Deep Creek Lake in Maryland to Sacred Ground before swinging North into Ohio and Indiana on the way back to home.

The trip will kick off our summer season, hopefully gasoline won't be too high.
