Western & Native Art

Black Arrow is proud to present our Western Art collection, handmade by award winning artists. Native to Arizona, Laura Mountain is a vibrant and talented local artist with a unique sense of creativity. Laura hand paints beautiful creations on caribou hides, deerskin hides, and buffalo hides. Laura Mountain's hand painted hides are all one-of-kind pieces of native-inspired wall art. One of which is displayed in the World Trade Center of Portland Oregon.
Our Western Art collection also features magnificent bronze sculptures and bronze wall art, by Western Artist Dennis Gallagher. Due to the immediate success of his work, Dennis’ sculptures in bronze have found their way into homes and corporate offices with private collections across America. Exposure at numerous art shows, including the prestigious Phippen Western Art Show, has proven very successful for him. Becoming a collector of Dennis’ low edition size sculptures offers you a rare, ground floor investment opportunity in a timeless body of western art that you will certainly treasure.
Our Western Art Collection also features oil paintings, water colors, sketches, and wax sculptures by famous cowboy artist Dave Powell from the Cowboy Artists of America. Because of his vast knowledge of the dress and habits of western Indians, pioneers and cowboys, Dave is often called upon to provide costumes and props, and to give technical advice about authenticity for films and television. In the 1980's, Dave followed in the footsteps of his father, the famous Western artist Ace Powell, to create his own masterpieces with the passion, skill and craft his father had instilled in him.
Cindy Jo Popejoy is a self-taught artist we feature, whose Native Masks are sought after from across the globe. Her quality of work is exemplary; every detail being perfected by hand and with the finest of materials being used. Cindy Jo is especially captivated by the Native Warrior and re-creates his likeness as was told to her by her Cherokee ancestors. Dynamic feathers, hand-pained elements, elaborate beadwork, and eyes that seem to capture the soul are some of the distinguishing features of Cindy’s art that makes her work stand out from the rest. Browse through Black Arrow’s extensive collection of Masks by Cindy Jo and be sure to read about the story behind the Large Masks; they will be sure to fascinate you!
In Native Zuni culture, carvings of symbolic animals and sometimes other objects, are an integral part of their spiritual being. Each fetish has a meaning and a purpose in hopes to guide it’s owner on a path of it’s intended direction. Fetishes are made from a variety of materials and stone, making each piece unique. A collector or a newcomer to fetishes alike, will enjoy Black Arrow’s assortment of Zuni Fetishes. To find the ideal fetish, please visit our Native American Fetish Guide. We will walk you through the meaning of various fetishes and what stone or material they are made from.
