Society Man

This painting depicts a Northern Cheyenne warrior - identified as a member of the Crazy Dog Society - an elite society where members imitate the coyote in their power and endurance. This warrior is mounted and forward-facing, with the rifle carried across his body and the horse stepping into the viewer’s space. I wanted the presence to feel direct and unwavering, the kind of composure that comes from discipline and responsibility rather than display. The spare background keeps the focus where it belongs: the rider’s expression, the weight of the garments, and the bold, warm statement of the horse beneath him.
