Rance Hood -Rance is one the few Native American artists who still paints in the manner which echoes the traditional Indian culture and spirituality of the past. Born in 1941 in Lawton, Oklahoma, Rance grew up in the home of his maternal grandparents who taught him the Comanche Indian ways and values.  Images from his grandfather's stories join the soaring colors of Peyote ritual in Rance's work. It's these childhood images that are frequent themes in Hood's art.  Rance Hood's range sets him apart. He has subtle ways of wedding color and technique to subject matter. His paintings go beyond tradition, beyond facility and far beyond illustration. Rance Hood is a warrior whose arrows are paintbrushes, His life's work is to pull from a vision or a dream an image to canvas.  Coming from a traditional Comanche clan, his grandfather influenced  Rance to rise as an artist and represent his people with authenticity and respect.

Jerry Ingram - Seldom does one find an artist who blends such a stunning sense of design with such a rich awareness of his cultural heritage.  Ingram's work is precise and detailed, yet fluid and free.  The natural balance and composition of his work reflect a special sensitivity that reveals a new dimension to even familiar subjects.  His work is an outstanding blend of traditional values and contemporary technique. Ingram was raised on a farm in southeast Oklahoma by his Choctaw mother and his Cherokee father.  His great-grandparents had walked to the Indian Territory form North Carolina on the infamous Trail of Tears.

Virginia Stroud - "'I paint for my people' art is a way for our culture to survive... perhaps the only way.  More than anything, I want to become a visual orator, to share with others the oldest of Indian traditions. I want people to look back at my work just like today we're looking back at the ledger drawings and seeing how it was then.  I'm working one hundred years in front of thos people and saying this is how we still do it... we still have our traditions."  Virginia Stroud has had her share of honors.  She has received awards, ribbons and medals for her painting and lithography.  The Cherokee artist has been honored as Miss Indian America and Indian Arts and Crafts Associations 1982 Artist of the Year.  She has been featured on the cover of Southwest Art magazine and was the feature artist in the first issue of Four Winds magazine.
