Cheyenne Artist - Jerome Bushyhead
"Coyote Walks
By" is the English meaning for the
Cheyenne Indian name of Jerome Bushyhead. He has been a professional Artist since 1970. Jerome is a nationally recognized artist for
his excellent interpretation of the life of the Plains Indians with his
original works starting at $5,000.
Joanne Harris of the Shreveport Times, in her review
of Jerome Bushyhead's work, dated February 17, 1991, stated: "In style,
Bushyhead is basically a representational artist, even when dealing with visionary
elements. At times, his work takes on a quality of super realism. Clearly,
Bushyhead identifies with the Indian hunter/warrior, the provider of sustenance
and safety for his people. But it is the
hunter's identification with his prey characteristic of almost all primitive
hunting societies that the artist has so vividly depicted to capture our
imagination. Probably the best thing
about Bushyhead's works is that they are good, solid, mainstream art. He avoids the gimmicky, cliché ridden kind of
Indian art that is seen to frequently, particularly with the current Southwest-style
home decor. These are works that will
endure regardless of fads and trends."
