Escondido - Framed LE 327/70 Lithograph w/signature
28in. tall 26in. wide. Says Howard Terpning. 0623 BRIT Terpning has become one of the most lauded painters of Western art today and is considered by many a national treasure. He is amongst the rare group of artists to see his work sell for over a million dollars in his lifetime. This is not only a rating of the mastery of his skills as an artist, but of his employment of them to allow the viewer to experience the deep respect for people and nature that drives his art.
Born in Illinois and educated at the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts and the American Academy of Art, Terpning first gained attention through his advertising and editorial illustrations. His vision became the force behind such classic movie posters as The Sound of Music Dr. Zhivago and the 1967 re-issue of Gone with the Wind. Always a Marine, Terpning answered the call again, making combat patrols around Da Nang with a camera and sketch pad for the Corps in Vietnam during 1967, but his love of the West and Native American traditions fueled his transition to fine art. He has become known as the Storyteller of the Native American because of his devotion and respect for the Plains Indians.

Escondido - Framed Large Print W/signature And Date
49in. tall 36in. wide. Says Aaron Freeland. 0623 BRIT Aaron Freeland is an award-winning Dine? (Navajo) artist from Farmington, New Mexico and one of the best pastel artists in the Native American art scene. He produces works in oil (on canvas), monotype, and pastel as well as monotype with hand applied colored chalk and opaque watercolor. Aaron's signature works are oils and pastels painted on black paper, specifically portraying truth through his portraits.
He has been collaborating with master printer Michael Costello at Hand Graphics in Santa Fe, New Mexico for over 20 years. Hand Graphics is the most comprehensive, privately owned printmaking atelier in the Southwest.
As with so many native artists before him, he attended the Institute of American Indian Arts (1973-1976) in Santa Fe New Mexico where he studied under Allen Houser, Doug Hyde and other important twentieth century artists.
?His bold, expressionistic portraits incorporate vivid colors and the immediacy of up-close faces.
Along with Hand Graphics, Aaron has a long-standing relationship with his gallerists, one in Los Angeles and the other in New York. This has allowed him to retain his focus on what he does best, paint.
?If I knew which way I was headed, I?d be lost.?- Aaron Freeland
