If you like gourd art, check out the first two that I have added to my website. They are HUMMINGBIRD GOURD designs on gourds grown in our yard here in Oklahoma. Just click on Enter Store button at left, then click on the Gourd button.
The Five Civilized Tribes Museum in Muskogee, OK, is currently displaying artworks by some wonderful Southeastern Indian artists. Several of my original paintings are included in this exhibit through the month of December 2008. All artwork is for sale.
If you are in the Dallas area, the American Indian Arts Council, Inc., has a gallery there. Its a great place to do a little Christmas shopping. Their address is 732 Preston Forest Shopping Center, Dallas, Texas, 75230.
The CHOCTAW INDIAN ARTS SHOW was held during Labor Day weekend at the Choctaw Capitol Building at Tuskahoma, OK. It was pretty exciting--a show of all Choctaw art. I received a third place in painting and a HERITAGE AWARD. I also received two purchase awards from the Choctaw Nation. It is always special to receive awards and purchases from your own tribe. It was also great to see lots of friends & relatives there!
YAKOKE--thanks for visiting my website.
