Abeyta has painted in a number of styles over the past few years. He is a creative artist and ventures into new styles and new subjects constantly. We have posted dramatic landscape paintings, colorful Yei figure paintings, and black-and-white imagery in the past.
This is one of his earlier paintings. It features an eagle feather, a most important symbol for Natives, as the central item. Surrounding the eagle feather are four Navajo Yei faces. On the edges of the canvas are images of crescent moons—celestial objects also being most important to Native cultures.
For those who like Abeyta's earlier imagery, here is a chance to acquire one. This one is from 2000 or 2001 and is in original condition. The canvas has been framed in a wood frame outlining a linen liner.
Condition: original condition
Provenance: from the estate of a Colorado collector
