Woodland Warrior
Circa 1760
By the mid 1700's the natives of America's northeast quarter relied heavily on the white man for supplies, guns and gunpowder. Their customs had changed little in the past several hundred years, however, they quickly and conveniently incorporated the white man's products into their everyday life. Firearms soon became the most important of those products. It made hunting easier and faster, leaving more time for the warrior to devote to his love of battle. His speed and mobility was legendary, due in part to his practice of wearing and carrying only the barest essentials. This painting depicts a warrior in typical battle attire.
The highly detailed painting entitled "Woodland Warrior" has been reproduced as a very limited edition, archival quality, giclee canvas print of only ten individually signed and numbered reproductions.
The giclee process, especially in small quantities, is an extremely costly endeavor, however, it allows the collector to obtain a superior quality, lasting work of art which can be displayed without the need of protective matting or glass.
