Sun-drenched colors and reverent expressions captivate in “Remembered Ancients” by Tony Abeyta. The work of this Navajo artist reflects his tribe’s belief that everything and everyone possesses a higher power. Extensively educated, Abeyta studied art at the undergraduate and graduate levels in the United States, as well as abroad in France and Italy. Abeyta enjoys experimenting with oil, charcoal and sand in various techniques and images, and represents the vivid colors of his home state of New Mexico with intense turquoises, reds and purples.
The works of Navajo artist Tony Abeyta represent his tribe’s belief that a higher power exists within everything and everyone. A native of New Mexico, Abeyta uses only bold colors in his creations, experimenting with oil, charcoal and sand. Abeyta’s extensive education includes undergraduate and graduate studies around the globe. When Washington, D.C.’s National Museum of the American Indian opened, Abeyta was commissioned to create its signature image.
This art print displays sharp, vivid images with a high degree of color accuracy. A member of the versatile family of art prints, this high-quality reproduction represents the best of both worlds: quality and affordability. Art prints are created on paper similar to that of a postcard or greeting card using an offset lithography press.
