  • Wild and Free

    $1,400.00$1,650.00
    I used three of my photos to achieve this band of wild horses. The Salt River wild horses are a historic population of unbranded, unclaimed, wild and free-roaming horses, that were born in the wild and merit protection within our National Forest. Back in 1890 the Salt River wild horses were referred to as “native animals”. According to Arizona’s own historical records, wild horses have been living on the Salt River and the Salt River Valley since well before the Tonto National Forest was created in 1902, but more likely much longer. Mustangs are descendants of Spanish, or Iberian, horses that were brought to the Americas by Spanish explorers in the 16th century. The name was derived from the Spanish word mustengo, which means “ownerless beast”.  Once escaped, these horses evolved without the influence of man and through survival of the fittest, evolved into the incredibly durable and tough breed we know today. The word Mustang or Wild Horse is used interchangeably. Tracing the Salt River wild horses back, historic records indicate that in 1687 Missionary Father Eusebio Keno journeyed to Southern Arizona (then Sonora) Due to his efforts, missions and stockyards were developed, he reportedly left hundreds of horses and cattle at each mission. His many expeditions on horseback covered over 50,000 square miles. He had 6 successful missions in Arizona including in Phoenix. Father Kino remained in southern Arizona until his death in 1711.

  • The white bison is an American iconic image. White buffalo or white bison is an American bison possessing white fur and is considered sacred or spiritually significant in several Native American religions; therefore, such buffalo are often visited for prayer and other religious rituals. I had the great experience of visiting the Lucky 8 Ranch in Oak Creek, Colorado. They currently have a herd of 350 bison. Oglala Sioux spiritual leader Floyd Looks for Buffalo Hand, a grandson of Red Cloud, is quoted as saying “The arrival of the white buffalo is like the second coming of Christ. … It will bring about purity of mind, body, and spirit and unify all nations—black, red, yellow, and white.” ​A white buffalo calf is extremely rare and happens only 1 in 10 million births from the mating of two brown bison.

  • Wonderment

    $895.00$1,350.00
    A child's world is fresh and new and beautiful, full of wonder and excitement. Life’s discovery consists of not seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes, eyes like a child. I am so pleased to introduce all four of these Native American children in one painting. I have been painting these children since 2005. Skye Blue, Thunder, Wylde and Breezy Summer. They are Diné (Navajo) with Mother’s clan being ‘Cliff Dwellers’ and Father’s clan being ‘Mud Clan’. Maternal Grandfather’s clan ‘Nooda’ which is Ute tribe and paternal Grandfather’s clan is ‘Chi’shii’ which is Chiriquaha Apache. These amazing outfits are all hand sewn and stitched by their Grandparents and Great Grandmother too! It took the family 18 months to craft these beautiful, elk hide outfit. The dresses and shirts are embellished with abalone shells for the girls, hammered silver for the boys. All with horsehair tassels that are the center of attention on the outfits. They are beaded with glass beads and cedar berries. The Navajo call these dried cedar berry beads Ghost Beads. The cedar berries are collected after ants have found the berries on the ground, nibbled off one end eaten the inside of the berry. The berries can be lightly smoked to further preserve them. The artisan then makes holes in the other end and the dried berries. The beads are strung in accordance with the harmony of nature. Cedar beads represent an interconnection of the earth, trees, animals and humans and they bring peace, harmony and safety to the wearer. They are a southwest tradition to protect one from evil spirits, ghosts and nightmares. The children are fascinated with this little creature that Skye is holding. The hedgehog got its name because of its peculiar foraging habits. They root through hedges and other undergrowth in search of their favorite food – small creatures such as insects, worms, centipedes, snails, mice, frogs, and snakes. As it moves through the hedges it emits pig-like grunts — thus, the name hedgehog. It symbolizes energy, defensiveness, defense, protection, fertility, intuition, psychic abilities, visions, vitality, protection, intelligence, resourcefulness, uniqueness, perception, calmness, curiosity, inner wisdom, resistance, endurance, etc. Hedgehogs are positive animals that symbolize happiness, motherhood, and calmness. They are loved by people because of their relaxed and non-aggressive behavior. Overall, hedgehogs are simply calm and relaxed creatures that symbolize everything that is positive in the world.

  • "Grown men may learn from very little children, for the hearts of little children are pure and therefore the Great Spirit may show to them many things which older people miss." - Native American proverb This painting is of Wild Shaunuwa at 2 years of age. He is clad in buckskin pants and moccasins that his Grandfather made him. Wild just caught his string of fish and ready to head home. Good thing for this adorable boy, he has the bow grandfather fashioned out of wood. Take a close look at the little bear cubs that are scampering around the waterfall. For the wood bows, the native people used oak, Osage, juniper, mesquite and other whitewoods and hardwood shrubs. A short, stout bow was used pretty much by all tribes. While it did not shoot as far as a long bow, that was not the idea. American hunters relied on stealth, tracking skills, and patience to get close to their quarry in order to shoot an accurate lethal shot. Breastplates had originally been worn as armor and for protection in both battle and hunting. In the hot climate of the Southwest, they were often worn over a bare chest. During winter months and in colder climates, they were often worn over a shirt. Many believed that, by wearing one made in a specific fashion, a spiritual advantage was obtained during hunting and battles. Breastplates are hand crafted from what is called hair pipe beads.

  • Are You My Brother Too?

    $550.00$795.00
    The painting is of adorable little Breezy Summer. For any of you that are familiar with my artwork of Native American children, she is Skye, Wylde and Thunder’s little sister. Little Miss Breezy is a delightful whole 3 years of age in this painting. Breezy’s family resides in northern New Mexico. The buckskin dress she is wearing is handmade and beaded by Elana Pate. It is intricately beaded with turtles as the cradle board and doll also. Breezy’s Mother has been teaching all her children at an early age that all God’s creatures must be respected because “we are all related.” Breezy is captivated with Mr. Turtle. . . Are You My Brother Too?

  • Thunder Cheií is featured alone, at age four, in the forest with his bear friend. Thunder is Diné (Navajo) with Mother’s clan being ‘Cliff Dwellers’ and Father’s clan being ‘Mud Clan’. Maternal Grandfather’s clan ‘Nooda’; which is Ute tribe and paternal Grandfather’s clan is ‘Chi’shii’; which is Chiricahua Apache (Apache: `great mountain'). He resides with his family in northern New Mexico. The bear is a Native American symbol, being free in spirit as the great wind, and grander than its mass. To match that magnitude is the quality of unpredictability in the bear. The bear is a massive animal who forages seemingly peacefully in the woods on berries and bush. Then if provoked in certain ways, the Native Americans witnessed a ferocity expressed from the bear that (understandably) would produce terror. In one way we get a picture of tranquility with the bear, and on the other, it is a symbol for warrior and power. Even tribes inclined towards peace honored the spirit of a warrior, and witnessing the bear seemed to embody that somewhat blind, powerful surge of courage and strength that every warrior wants to tap into. Thunder was given a powerful name at birth. Therefore, it is in his nature to use his voice or make noise to always be heard when in need of something. His little warrior spirit is in connection with his bear cub totem.

  • Eagle Child

    $495.00$695.00
    Thunder’s Mother titled this painting Eagle Child. She said, "Our Chei's (grandfathers) pray to the creator as the sun rises to greet a new day!" Thunder is always looking and pointing upwards to the sky and heavens. After finishing this painting, I noticed a magical eagle that appears in his face. Eagles have very spiritual meanings. The majestic Eagle totem is symbolic of being a supreme visionary. Possessing the power of exceptional vision, he is master of timing and accuracy. Each Eagle brings the essence of expanding your spirit flying high and free. When Eagle spirit animals appear in your life, you are being asked, if not challenge to go deeper into your spiritual quest. Eagle symbol meaning is challenging you to take your idea and bring it into reality; just as Eagle can spot it’s pray from very far distance and use its ability to remain completely on its mission. You must take action on your visions; this is your greatest destiny. Eagle spiritual meanings remind us to be victorious, proud and strong. Do all these things with great humility... that humility of nature that is beautiful and grand yet does not boast. This is the symbolic meaning of Eagle shown to us by Great Spirit.

  • Gathering

    $1,400.00
    I was working and showing at the Arizona Fine Art Expo, a 12 week show in Scottsdale, Arizona. Scott Wallis and myself used our creativity to masterfully paint one of my native models. I started with my sketch and oil paints, passed the canvas over to Scott and he worked the background. We passed this canvas back and forth until it was finished. Scott is an impressionistic painter and I love the way we were able to marry our two distinctive styles. Breezy Summer is the model and one of the families I have visited every year since 2005. Breezy Summer is the model and one of the families I have visited every year for about 14 years.

  • Dyani was presented a perfect ear of corn in Shungopavi which is one of the first Hopi villages established on Second Mesa. Dyani is wearing a knee-length dress called a manta. A manta fastened at a woman's right shoulder, leaving her left shoulder bare. Missionaries did not think this dress style was modest enough, so in the 1900's many Hopi women started wearing blouses underneath their mantas. This style is still in use today. Unmarried Hopi women wear their hair in elaborate butterfly whorls, while married women wear theirs in two long pigtails. Hopi means “peaceful people”. Hopi is such a special place for Sharon Brening to visit. The Hopi are among the most ritualistic people in North America, with much of their ancient ritual still intact

  • What Was That?

    $495.00$750.00
    This blue-eyed cowboy is a fellow artist and friend. Craig is a fabulous bronze sculptor. His chaps and tack were crafted by another friend, Carson, a 4th generation saddle maker who resides in Wyoming. The western cowboy still lives on. His gear can be a rich tapestry of his or her own making. The style of his boots and chaps to his hat. Even the way he wears and knots his wild rag or kerchief. Big spurs, small spurs, lots of silver Conchos, its endless. Much of the style dress and many of the terms used in reference to cowboys, horses, their tack, and the things they do are regional. Many of the words are derived from the Spanish Conquistadors who brought the first horses to America. The gun and holster are still important objects to have while riding in our Arizona territory.
