Winter Rider / Scout after Edward Curtis & Frederick Remington Oil on canvas 16X20 inches Edward Curtis was a dedicated 19th Century photographer who made it his life’s work to record Native American peoples and their way of life. Curtis made possible an extraordinary record unlike anything anyone has ever accomplished. The Curtis collection is inspirational in many ways, and being all black & white, or sepia images, it allows me as artist to imagine the colors of the scenes and personalities. Winter Rider / Scout is a favorite image of mine from the Curtis archive, one that evokes a twilight scene such as something Frederick Remington might have created. I enjoy painting nocturnes and low light images as did many of my favorite artist/illustrators, people such as Remington, Whistler, and N.C. Wyeth. In this image one might imagine the cold, feel the wind, and perhaps wonder how far this rider and horse still have to go. We might ponder what he is doing, maybe watching for trouble, hunting, or trapping. This painting is for sale, available framed or unframed, and I can assist with any framing requirement.

Watering Hole after Edward Curtis & Frederick Remington Oil on canvas 16X20 inches It appears that Edward Curtis directed many of his famous photographs, essentially setting up the shots. This painting contains all the stereotypical components that have solidified in many people’s minds concerning what an ‘indian’ looks like. The Native American ‘chief’ in this image wears a ceremonial feathered headdress, has the full eccoutrements, and includes the rifle. Nevertheless, its a beautiful scene, and apparently one can lead a horse to water!

Night Rider after Edward Curtis & Frederick Remington Oil on canvas 16X20 inches This painting was probably arranged, and as the large view cameras used at that time were not able to make fast exposures and not easily portable like modern SLRs, the horse must have been halted, there is a little dust blur, but the horse and rider had to have been stopped and this is a lucky exposure. As I said, it appears that Edward Curtis directed many of his famous photographs, essentially setting up the shots. I wonder if this is the same horse used for the Watering Hole photo, perhaps the same person without the headdress? This was a fun photo to translate to color as a nocturne painting.
