Clifford
Brycelea is a quiet,
thoughtful man. Like most men
of this type, when he makes a
statement,
it usually carries weight. The
award winning Navajo artist
realizes
that he has the power to influence
and reach many people with his
painting.
He regards this ability to make a
statement with respect.
Brycelea is a mystical artist, a
spiritual
artist and a realist. There
is much in the mystical and
spiritual that is real and he
tries to
bring
that to the people that appreciate
his paintings. His subjects
nearly
always reflect a culture and
belief of Native Americans.
He
paints
their legends, their stories, and
their lifestyles. Brycelea
does
not limit his subjects to the
Navajo for he has studied many
Indian
cultures
and found that they share a great
deal.
He has been winning awards for
his art since
he was ten years old.
Since graduating from Fort Lewis
College in Durango, Colorado, he
has
shown
his work in galleries across the
country, illustrated magazines
articles
and books and experimented in
different techniques.
While his style can not be
stereotyped, the
quality of his work is well
known among Indian art
lovers. He continues to win
awards, among
them three gold medals from the
American Indian Cowboy Artists
Society,
and Indian Arts & Crafts
Association 1987
Artist-Of-The-Year.
In every Brycelea painting there
is a
story. For every person,
the story is different. The
artist leaves that to you.
