Native American Art

The Gallery sells original paintings, giclée limited editions, limited editions and open editions (see definitions). We represent esteemed artists such as Judy Larson, Martin Grelle and Howard Terpning — artists who are well known and admired for their depiction of Native American traditions, wildlife and/or the American West. The Gallery houses the Southeast’s largest collection of the works of renowned Cherokee artist Donald Vann. We also represent Greenwich Workshop, Somerset House and a number of very fine self-published artists.

Definitions
Giclée Limited Edition
A French word loosely meaning sprayed. It has become the accepted term for the type of print that is being produced on state-of-the-art inkjet printers, which create an extremely high quality image by depositing millions of infinitesimally small droplets of ink on a substrate of paper, canvas, etc. The resulting print is nearly continuous in tone, with individual droplets of ink barely visible with a magnifying glass. The prints are usually hand numbered and signed by the artist.
Limited Edition
Artwork produced in a deliberately limited quantity. Each item in the edition is identical. The artist inspects each print before signing to ensure it is true to his/her original vision. The limited size of the edition enhances the value of each piece. The prints are usually hand numbered and signed by the artist.
Open Edition
A print edition of unlimited number with no artist signature.
