Watercolor Portrait of Native American Crow Bull Chief Painting

This watercolor portrait of a Crow Bull Chief is a realistic depiction of a decent, courageous, but disillusioned man who sees his way of life and beautiful land taken away from underneath his feet. So many of us are in the process of reappraising how the management of the European invasion of Indian habitat was handled. We are lucky that the Ancient peoples dating from pre-historic times have not entirely disappeared, in order for them to be able to start introducing us to their humane legacy that could not be destroyed. This work is based on a photograph by Edward Curtis who, having discovered the Western Tribes, dedicated his professional life to documenting their humanity. His legacy is of indescribable value to integrate the past into a world culture that has grown to be a treasure common to us all. In my painting, I bring the man to life in the warrior, who is at all times ready to give his life in the pursuit of a mighty cause. Let the string of bearclaws around his neck speak for itself.
