"Oklahoma City-based artist Brent Learned, an enrolled member of the
Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes of Oklahoma, is known for his colorful,
impressionistic portrayals of the Plains Indian way of life. He draws,
sculpts, but mostly paints, in vibrant hues that belie the sometimes
dark material he’s depicting.

As of late, Learned has experimented more with his work, putting the
same Plains Indian subjects into pop art settings, using satire and
sometimes nudity, as well as doing his own versions of iconic paintings
by Pablo Picasso, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Gustav Klimt."
