About the Artist | (Born 1948) "Donald Vann is a Cherokee Indian artist born in Oklahoma. His subject matter chronicles the lives and emotions of the Indian people, and his goal is to convey mystical qualities of his work by the use of subtle colors and graceful lines. The artist states: "In our world there is an unspoken quality, a feeling, that touches and flows through everything, all of us as well as all things of the earth. If one listens to these forces he will find himself painting instinctively with the feelings of his heart, about his ancestoral beliefs and the way he lives his life today. Vann has received regional recognition from the Five Civilized Tribes Museum in Muskogee, Oklahoma" taken from AskArt.com. |
