This one just popped up on a website. Fitting for this thread and from a relatively famous artist. :wink:

An early Charles Loloma Kachina mural formerly in The Hopi High School now on display at The Heard Museum in Phoenix, Arizona.

This pic is in my Trading Post Guidebook.


This one is a bit of a stretch, but it hangs on my wall, so I’ll push the limits. When I looked really close, the middle rider has on silver earrings :crazy_face:

I bought the poster at the National Museum of American Art in DC decades ago when my brother lived there.

Sorry, the lights reflecting are my chile pepper Christmas lights which permanently hang in our living room.

When I was a kid we lived in Wide Ruins which is the home of the Toddy family and always felt like the work captured the Navajo landscape and people I knew.

Love that! Years ago we almost bought a Wide Ruins rug at Teec Nos Pos Trading Post, but ended up with another.

One of my favorite artforms - Hopi Kachina carvings from cottonwood root. Here’s one from our collection by Aaron Honyumptewa, son of Stetson Honyumptewa.

Another artist I’m drawn to is Logan Maxwell Hagege. Most of the time his subjects are wrapped in blankets. Rarely does he include any type of jewelry. Here we get a glimpse of a concho belt.

Charles Russell (1864-1926). I mostly think of Russell painting or sculpting Plains Indians and cowboys, not so much Southwest Indians, but he did.
