    "Northern Cheyenne"


    The Cheyenne are of Algonquian ancestry, and originally inhabited the lands around the Great Lakes in present-day Minnesota. In historic times they moved west, migrating across the Mississippi River and into North and South Dakota. They settled the Black Hills of South Dakota and the Powder River Country of present-day Montana, and introduced the horse culture to Lakota (Sioux) bands about 1730.

    This original acrylic painting is one of an ongoing series of Native American personalities. This series will all be done on 18 X 24 inch canvas as mono-colors in raw umber. Currently all are available and are all for sale.

    The original "Cheyenne Elder" is for sale. $500
