Description/Inspiration:

Additional Information Mixed media image of iinii (American Bison) on historical document depicting Oklahoma and the Indian Territories, from the 1800's. Second in a series due to the tremendous response to the first piece.

Artist Bio:

Craig Marks is a Florida Suncoast fine artist and illustrator who resides in St. Petersburg with his wife and six children. A Pikuni descendant, the cultural influence of the Blackfeet culture is evident in his body of
work. He has developed strong relationships within the Blackfoot Confederacy and has gained recognition as a ledger artist. The titles of many of his works are in the Blackfoot language, in the hopes of inviting non-native viewers into conversations that dismantle stereotypes, and address inequities still existing in the 21st Century.

Artist Statement:

The Peace Love Art Indigenous Collective is a deeply personal experience, allowing me to show express my gratitude for those who have brought me to this point in my life. As an adopted child, I was blessed with a home and people who loved me and gave me everything. Like any adopted child, I had questions about who I was, and where I came from and left me with an emptiness I had accepted as one I would have to live with.

When I found my birth family, that began to change. Eventually it would be art that opened the doors to understanding my past and finding my ancestors. Each face I paint has a story to tell. Every being depicted on my canvas or rendered on paper has honored me with sharing their story with the world before it is forgotten. Every line on paper or stroke of my brush brings life and spirit to a surface that
was once lifeless.

Title: Two Feathers

Artist: Robert Martinez

Tribal Affiliation: Northern Arapaho

Year Completed: 2020

Medium: Graphite & Acrylic on Vintage Map Image, Unframed

Dimensions (HxWxD): 11in x 14in x 3/4in

Description/Inspiration:

"Two Feathers" is in Robert Martinez's signature mixed media style using strong tones of drawn black graphite & painted white acrylic over a 1934 South Dakota Railroad Map. Carrying on from the Ledger Art tradition, Robert uses images of the indigenous people on the land they called home before colonization.

Artist Bio/Statement:

Robert Martinez was born in Wyoming on the Wind River Reservation in the small city of Riverton. He grew up a part of many different cultures as his lineage is Spanish, Mexican, Scotts Irish, French Canadian and Northern Arapaho. He graduated Riverton High School at 17 and through a scholarship, attended the Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design. He graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts specializing in Painting & Drawing and minoring in sculpture, in 3 years and at age 19, becoming the Youngest Native American to graduate from RMCAD at that time.

As he was brought up in the center of the reservation, his native heritage remains a constant inspiration and source of ideas for his work. Living in among the hard working people of the West and experiencing their issues also deeply influence his creations. The past and present often resonate strongly in Wyoming and those historical and contemporary chords echo throughout his work.

Much of Robert's current work uses the historical imagery, myth's and stories of the West & Arapaho Culture combined with modern themes to create images that have a statement on the issues of today. Using intense vibrant color and contrasting shades of light and dark, he paints and draws striking forms that are confronting and engages the viewer. His paintings and drawings have been shown across the Nation and have garnered noted acclaim. He's been given Wyoming highest award for the arts, the Wyoming Governors Art Award. His work is included in the permanent collections of the Brinton Museum, The Plains Indian Museum at the Cody Center of the West, and the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian.

A strong supporter of Education and of the Arts, Robert devotes time to helping and mentoring emerging artists on his reservation and through out the Nation. He gives back to the community by speaking about art topics, giving workshops, and demonstrates his style to schools, agencies and art groups.

Title: The One That sits Above (1 of 1 from series of 10)

Artist: Jimmy Dean Horn Jr.

Tribal Affiliation: Chickasaw

Year Completed: 2022

Medium: Printmaking, non traditional Intaglio and Block Print mono prints, Unframed. (See Video Below)

Dimensions (HxWxD): 50 x 27"

Artist Bio/Statement:

I am Jimmy Dean Horn jr, a Chickasaw artist. I draw, paint, print and create in just about anyway I can. My recent series "The One That Sits Above" explores what it means to be a white passing Native American in a society built on entitlement, bent on destroying itself and everything with it. I grew up in a military family detached from the culture, the past decade I have been learning and unlearning as I explore a culture I was denied. Each of the pieces within this series (20 in total, 10 fullsize 27x50", 10 portrait 18x24") touches on a different part of that narrative.
My process is a nontraditional form of printmaking. My intaglio plates are etched on scrap plexiglas sourced from a local frame trashcan, my block prints are on lino, gym mats, and even traffic cones. I do this in hopes to keep my carbon foot print low while I explore off the beaten path. My pieces are all printed by hand, I do not use a press. Each piece is a one off print, I use printmaking a the medium to create art not as a tool for mass production of works. The elements used with the pieces are often times repeated in various pieces, but used in a way that changes the meaning of that element. ie, the flaming world can be just that in one piece, while the next it is a warbonnet. This is achieved by cropping, color, or placement.

Medium: Graphite and ink, Hand drawn on mixed media acid free paper, Unframed

Dimensions (HxWxD): 14 in x 17 in

Description/Inspiration:

Back in 2020 just before Covid-19 hit the US my mom had a heart attack, she is fully recovered now. But as she was in recovery the hospitals were filling with people and and loved ones had to be in full PPE just to see loved ones. The picture shows holding hand of two people one with a hospital band in ICU the other in full PPE. This is what so many experienced saying good bye and not able to actually have contact with each other. The feeling of not able to physically touch and transfer the healing touch to each other. So many had to say good bye this way and I felt it was best conveyed in black and white.

Artist Bio/Statement:

Stephen Saupitty, enrolled member of Comanche Tribe of Oklahoma. Lives in Temple, OK with wife of 11 years Angelica Saupitty with 6 beautiful children. Drawing most of my life with pencil, pen ,ink and painting really becoming a passion in the past few years. Mostly specializing in murals with spray paint, but oil on canvas is a new venture I'm trying out. I love to create and curate new artworks and when you can have a purpose or drive behind it and awaken a feeling with art it makes it that much better. I imagine the world would love to be more colorful and empowering and that's what I'm trying to convey into my works. Social issues really tug at my heart especially with the MMIW movement going and having daughters of my own I would like to help in the best way I could and that's to spark interest and or conversations about ongoing native issues. Thank you, dreamcatcher foundation, for the selection and thank you for checking out my art work.

Title: America's Great Again

Artist: Chad "Little Coyote" Yellowjohn

Tribal Affiliation: Shoshone Bannock/Spokaneancestral

Year Completed: 2017

Medium: Copic, Micron, Sharpies, Framed

After drafting an idea, and picking my subjects, I outline lightly with a pencil of the creation, and outline with a Micron Pen. After the Micron Pen outline has been dried, I erase the pencil outline. I start coloring the base color, then begin the shadowing with a darker tone, to light tone, the process must be quickly done to get the smooth fade. The finishing process are final details on facial features, the hair strands, and any small details that would give viewers the time to appreciate.

Dimensions (HxWxD): 28x22

Description/Inspiration:

This was not a threat, simply a response to his tweets, his remarks against protesting football players, the insults you proudly state in the presence of our Code Talkers, the disrespect you have against women, and the list goes on and on. We are a proud people and as he continued his Imperial actions, we the Rebels were at war with him till the end of his term (and continues). Viewers may relate this to Kathy Griffin, however if its found it to be okay for him to act the way he acted/acts, and does what he does, then I find it to be okay to draw the way I draw. It may be expressed as being "too far" I find it to be just right for some individuals who have been angered/harmed by his actions. But please, hate me, hate my drawing and express it, or love me, and love my drawing and support me, and yourself. I consider this to be one of my best art creations because it's beyond my usual size, it's my first horse I ever drew (which was near our camp at Standing Rock), and it spoke to me.

Inspired by my Father David Browneagle Sr of the Spokane Tribe. Each of my Masked Dancers has a different background, but has the same value, culture. When the pandemic first began, ceremonies, cultural events, were being cancelled worldwide. For some of us, that is out lively hood, for some of us, its our only connection to the culture. My masked dancers started off with a self-motivation to continue grass dancing. Later it grew to 25 Masked Dancers to help motivate other cultures, and other nationalities to adapt to current and future pandemics and preserving their culture at the same time.

Title: Blackfoot Masked Dancer

Artist: Chad "Little Coyote" Yellowjohn

Tribal Affiliation: Shoshone Bannock/Spokaneancestral

Year Completed: 2022

Medium: Copic, Micron, Sharpies, Unframed

After drafting an idea, and picking my subjects, I outline lightly with a pencil of the creation, and outline with a Micron Pen. After the Micron Pen outline has been dried, I erase the pencil outline. I start coloring the base color, then begin the shadowing with a darker tone, to light tone, the process must be quickly done to get the smooth fade. The finishing process are final details on facial features, the hair strands, and any small details that would give viewers the time to appreciate.

Dimensions (HxWxD): 12x9

Description/Inspiration:

Inspired by fellow and participating artist Mikayla Martin (Itsooaakii). Each of my Masked Dancers has a different background, but has the same value, culture. When the pandemic first began, ceremonies, cultural events, were being cancelled worldwide. For some of us, that is out lively hood, for some of us, its our only connection to the culture. My masked dancers started off with a self-motivation to continue grass dancing. Later it grew to 25 Masked Dancers to help motivate other cultures, and other nationalities to adapt to current and future pandemics, and preserving their culture at the same time.

When it silences a crowded place, it's letting the people know, that Indigenous People are still here. With this piece, I hope to inspire indigenous people to let out the LiLi, the Warhoop, and the F?umu from time to time, not caring where they are, who they are with. It isn't just a cry, it's a healing warhoop that let's out emotions, such as anger, love, and celebration.

The young boy in the front plays with a Lego Bionicle Toy representing a warrior he hopes to be one day. Seeing that there's only one boy in this creation, boys and men should be taught and reminded of the care the women give to man and need to be protectors regardless. We have many women, who carry on many traits, lessons, that are carried on from our ancestors. When a sister, niece, auntie, mother, grandmother disappears, their lessons can't be carried on, which is another form of colonization. Stay safe, and more importantly, keep them safe!

With very little connection to their Korean heritage and being raised alongside their adopted Mexican/Nahuatl family, much of early life was full of cultural richness and contrasts. Art has been used as a tool to carve out a space for Jamie and others like them despite the impact of colonialism, intergenerational traumas, and gender violence. The viewing
of Jamie's work begins with the understanding that we do not live in a post-colonial society and the Indian Wars never ended. Everyday acts of settler colonial violence such as displacement, police brutality, and land desecration, provide a window to the injustices of our ancestors. Intertwining personal narrative along with historical memory and cultural loss allows the work to speak to what it means to be Indigenous, what it means to honor our histories, and what our history can tell us about our future. Jamie's cultural and familial background gives a profound sense of kinship and belonging as well as what it means to connect to the land, to ceremony, language, and to others. The responsibilities they have to their community, kin, and culture is a mindset that extends throughout their body of work. Using multiple mediums and the incorporation of traditional craftworks gives a way to visualize the complexities offered by looking at ideas such as reconciliation for Indigenous communities and what living in the colonial present means. With works tackling topics of imperialism, colonial genocide, and historical loss, Jamie attempts to pull the thread of resistance to these atrocities through cultural connection and emphasizing collective survival.

Title: Bisonpillar

Artist: Stella Nall

Tribal Affiliation: Apsáalooke (Crow)

Year Completed: 2020

Medium: Giclée Print from Digital Illustration

Dimensions (HxWxD): 11 x 15 inches

Artist Bio:

Stella Nall is a multimedia artist and poet from Bozeman, and a First Descendant of the Apsáalooke Tribe. She graduated from the University of Montana in 2020 with a BFA in Printmaking, a BA in Psychology and a minor in Art History and Criticism. She now lives and works in Missoula, where she is represented by Radius Gallery. Her work lives in murals across Montana, as well as in numerous public and private collections, including The Montana Museum of Art and Culture, the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, and The Institute of American Indian Arts Museum of Contemporary Native Arts.

Artist Statement:

As an artist I am driven by three primary forces: to process my experiences, to connect with others, and to advocate for change. I love to use vibrant colors to illustrate whimsical, sweet, imaginary creatures which tell a story. Some of the imagery that I use is drawn from tradition, and some I developed to speak to my own experiences. I utilize imagined creatures to discuss a wide variety of topics including love, grief, joy and identity.

I am Apsáalooke, and as a child my mother first exposed me to art through her beadwork. The stitches, palettes and patterns she used, as well as those of our tribe, still influence my work today. Media is an important aspect of my work. I combine beadwork with other two dimensional forms of art making such as printmaking, painting, and illustration with the intention of challenging existing stereotypes and expectations viewers may hold about what Indigenous art should look like.

Medium: Digital art / Painting (print) Signed by Artist, Unframed

Dimensions (HxWxD): 24 x 20

Description/Inspiration:

I incorporated blue for its association with feelings of sadness, feeling alone, and forlorn. When seeing it, it helps invoke those feelings of uncertainty that many children felt at residential schools. I used a light blue in association with young ages of those victims of this. I used orange for its representation of the impacts of residential schools still felt today. It is an interpretive piece meant to invoke feelings.

Artist Bio/Statement:

I am an Indigenous land protector, and activist for climate action and human rights, utilizing my art to fight the impacts of colonialism. My deep connection to the lands of Turtle Island, ancestors, and Indigenous way of life guides me in everything I do, including my art. My art focuses on 'Indigenizing' and decolonizing, with the goal to break down colonialism. Art in this way brings everyday people into a moment of experience, understanding that experience is a virtue. Looking at my work puts you inside a moment to experience the happiness, the sadness, the history, the heartbreak, the trauma, and the everyday lived occurrences shared in our Indigenous experience. All of my pieces are inspired by the Indigenous way of life even with abstract pieces because pull from my perspective as an Indigenous woman to create these pieces.

I used the visual language of lines, form, and colors to create a composition which may exist with a degree of interpretation. Its origins relays the message of the strength of a woman, mom, auntie, and grandma in Indigenous communities across Turtle Island. Each Native woman's journey is a revealing story of strength, courage, and wisdom. For generations, our grandmothers, mothers, sisters, and daughters have played a major role in maintaining our culture, protecting our families, fighting for our people, all while caring for their families and community. The lines form a strong Indigenous woman carrying out her duties of life while carrying her baby on her back. All that Indigenous women endure and do day to day, they still find the strength to take care of others.
