Offered in this lot for your consideration is an original acrylic painting by Cheyenne Native American artist Lyn Ross Bixby, dated 1989. Lyn Ross Bixby was born of Northern Cheyenne heritage in the Crow Agency, Montana in 1955. This is a wonderful painting of a young brave dancing. Each tribe has its own interpretation of powwows. Powwows are used for war party celebrations upon successful return from battle. Other powwows are used to honor loved ones, returning veterans, or new dancers to the circle. This piece has wonderful color and emotion. The painting measures 36" x 17 3/4". This painting is in good condition and shows no signs of damage.
