Before Texas

Before Texas

Acrylic | 30" x 48"

Before Texas captures a moment suspended in time — before lines were drawn on a map, before a name was given to this land. Rendered in warm, weathered tones against a deep wood-grained backdrop, the piece portrays a Native American man in quiet, dignified repose. His hairpipe breastplate, feathered adornment, and traced war paint are rendered in exacting detail, honoring a history that predates the state we know today.
