Jerome Tiger Indian Woman & Child Gouache Painting
For your consideration is a framed original gouache painting by Jerome Tiger. This beautiful work of art shows an Indian woman carrying a baby in, what appears to be, a cold fall day. The woman and child are wrapped in a blanket, with their hairing blowing in the wind, with leaves falling to the grassy ground. Jerome Richard Tiger (1941–1967) was a highly influential Native American painter from Oklahoma. Tiger produced hundreds of paintings from 1962 until his death in 1967. A fullblood Muscogee Creek-Seminole, Tiger's style is said to be a combination of "spiritual vision, humane understanding, and technical virtuosity" but with traditional subject matter and composition. The painting shows many vibrant colors including orange, green, blue, tan, and black. It is signed "Tiger" in the lower right corner. The visible art measures 8"x10" and the frame measures 14.75" 11.75"
