Creek Ltd. Edition Framed Print by Albert Harjo
Native American Creek Ltd. Edition Framed Print by Albert Harjo (1937-2019), visual measures 8.25'' x 11'', overall framed measurement of 15.25'' x 12.5'', hand signed and numbered, #375/500, FYI: ''Albert Harjo was born on September 25, 1937, deep within the Muscogee (Creek) Nation in the rural area of Hanna, Oklahoma. He is full-blood Muscogee. After graduating from Chilocco, he enlisted and served in the United States Marine Corps. Harjo's subject matter derives from his own life experiences as well as those of neighbors, friends, and family. He painted in the very unforgiving style considered by most disciples of Native American art as traditional or Bacone style, as established by tribal artists active at Bacone College. There is no erasing or covering up. His paintings use colors and multiple contour lines to define figures and shapes, as opposed to three-dimensional perspective or shading. He worked in tempera and watercolor.''
