 * Assignment 2**



I choose Native American Cards, impressionistic, Dakota Sioux Artist Joanne Bird. []

I think what makes it native art is because she draws Indians this top picture is of the grand entry at a pow wow. I think this art is old and traditional made modern. I think being a native American artist is a privilege because so many Indians died trying to survive when the land kept being taken away from them by the government. The Native Americans are finally getting settled and getting a good education so they can accomplish anything they want too.


 * Discussion:**

This article left me confused. I thought Indian art came from our ancestors brought down to their children's children and so forth. That's what made the art work native American and traditional to my understanding. The Indians are a indigenous and sustainable people in history and today. The government are still learning from the American Indians. Now, that the Indian tribes are more settled and getting better education they are able to more express themselves with Indian art. Which, I think art is art if it's pretty enough I'll buy it. I have home interior art mixed with a little Native art. I love all kinds of art it doesn't matter to me who draws it. I just appreciate art.
