Fan of Cheyenne
Symbols of Cheyenne ceremonial fans and bustles dance around on this hand painted deer hide. Many Cheyenne ceremonial items were decorated with eagle feathers attached to ornately beaded bases. The Native American dance is rich in symbolism. It is a ceremony that connects the people with the natural and spiritual world. Their dances appease the spirits, celebrate peace or victory, express longing and encourage healing.
Hides are Hand Painted by Local Prescott Artist Laura Mountain. Laura feels it is important that the materials used are as genuine and natural as possible. Hand crafted arrowheads, shells, feathers, and various trade beads are hand sewn, wrapped, and tied with sinew. Ground earth pigments are mixed with natural bases and oils to produce her paints.
This painted hide is now part of a private collection. Orders can be taken from this original. Though every effort is made to keep the design as close as possible to the original, there will be slight variances in size, shape, color, and design placement. Please allow 4 to 6 weeks delivery.
