Martin Grelle - Crows in the Yellowstone
Image Size: 36 x 40 Edition: Artist Signed and Numbered to 150 with 15 AP's Medium: Giclee on Canvas About the Art: “I've gone through Yellowstone National Park a number of times over the years, and I am always in awe of the beauty of the area. The inspiration for this painting is Lewis Falls, one of the easiest things to see in the park. Three Crow (Apsaalooke) are crossing below the falls, and the youngest of the party has turned to look above the falls - the question, and actually, the story, is what or who stirred up the birds (which happen to be crows) that are flying above the trees? Sometimes, like in old movies, the unseen danger lets us imagine much more than the obvious.” - Martin Grelle

Martin Grelle - Running with the Elk-Dogs
Image Size:32 x 40 Edition:150 Medium: Giclee About the Art:Coming soon… Release Date: 1-2010 "In his book, 'No More Buffalo', Bob Scriver tells with a fictional story how the Blackfeet described the first horse that they saw. Some said it looked like the elk, being about the same size and color, and others had seen it in distant Indian camps being used to pull the travois - like the dogs that were used by the Blackfeet. So, according to the story, they called them 'Ponokah-Eemetah' in their language, which translates to Elk-Dog in English.

Martin Grelle - Warming Fire
Giclee on Canvas - Signed & Numbered Size: 36 x 36 Release Date: 1-2008 "Warming Fire" was painted by Martin Grelle in 2006 and appeared in the Prix de West Invitational in that year. It is unusual in that the landscape is more subtle than in many of Grelle's pieces. The cold, crisp atmosphere is readily apparent, while sunlight, so often featured in his work, is totally lacking. The fire is truly the only warming influence in the composition.

Martin Grelle - Still Water Crossing
iclee on Canvas - Signed & Numbered Size: 18 x 12 Release Date: 2-2008 Because of his Native American ancestry, Martin Grelle particularly enjoys painting Native Americans and their culture. He travels the West looking for perfect places within which to place his characters, and often those places include a river, stream or pond. In this piece, the deep blues of the water contrasted with the light grayish tones in the rocks alongside the stream in the foreground serve to lead the viewer into the painting and back to the sparkling white of the brave's horse. It is a peaceful, serene moment which would be punctuated only be the sounds of the forest and stream itself.

Martin Grelle - Valley Guardian
"Valley Guardian" is rare in that Martin Grelle does not often utilize a square format. This painting is exquisite in its simplicity - a solitary figure in a solitary setting. And yet there is so much more to the story. It is a cold, crisp day. Winter sunlight plays on the rider and his horse bringing out magnificent color. The responsibility is great as he guards his valley, but he is up to the task especially on a beautiful winter day. Size: 14 x 14 Release Date: 8-2008 Edition Size: 95

Martin Grelle - Eagle Prayer
32 x 40 signed and numbered canvas giclee by artist Martin Grelle (150 available). A Crow (Apsaalooke) hunter raises his hand in prayer to the eagle as they pause on their late winter journey through what would become known as Jackson Hole.

Perhaps in his vision quest he had received the eagle as his spiritual guide, and he is asking the eagle for help as they travel in search of elk.

Martin Grelle - Trappers in the Wind Rivers
30 x 38 signed & numbered canvas giclee by artist Martin Grelle (150 in the edition) "The setting for the painting is a few miles west of the Wind River, and northeast of the Wind River Range of mountains in what is now west-central Wyoming. The time period is early April of 1833. After having been in winter camp for months, two free-trappers have begun the spring harvest on a small stream where they have discovered a beaver lodge. They have begun the task of setting traps, which includes placing dried wooden stakes a few feet from the bank to which the chain of the trap itself is attached. They have removed their coats to keep them dry, but have left their leggings on as protection from the still frigid waters. In their busy-ness, they have let 3 Indians approach to a close distance unnoticed, and must now deal with the circumstances. The Indians are Crow, or Apsaalooka, and chances are it will be a peaceful encounter, followed by a night of keeping watch over their livestock - as the Crow are well-known for their horse-stealing abilities. A few months later, in July, the annual rendezvous was held on the other side of the mountains at the junction of Green River and Horse Creek. It is said that more than 165 packs of beaver pelts were traded at that rendezvous." -Martin Grelle

Martin Grelle - Camp Meat and Mules
Camp Meat and Mules by Martin Grelle ~ “Two Crow (Apsaalooke) warriors/hunters are returning to a winter's camp, with two mules they've "acquired" from some unlucky trappers, as well as fresh meat -- packed on the stolen mules and a packhorse, and covered with the fresh robes, which will be fleshed & tanned. Tonight the camp will have fresh-roasted meat, and tales of the hunters' heroics.” Giclee on Canvas Signed and Numbered Edition of 150 Dimensions:32" x 45"
