In trying to find artists who use American Indian symbols in their art I discovered the artist Tom Gilleon. View his work here Tom Gilleon's grandfather had immigrated to the United States from Scotland. His grandmother, was a Cherokee and descended from a band of tribal members who refused to relocate into a reservation in the Oklahoma Territory. I was so impressed with the aesthetic qualities of his teepees series, that I decided to introduce his work to our students. Here is how he describes the spark and luminosity found in his teeppees. " My memory of the important events in my early life are set somehow in dramatic theater lighting.

I always felt drawn into the light and everything around the glow disappeared into a blur." Tom Gilleon The artist Tom Gilleon For this project the students were given two options in creating their-Tom Gilleon inspired teepee. 1. Use American Indian symbols to decorate the teeppe. 2. Use simple lines for the teeppe and place the emphasis on the background. Tom Gilleon Tom Gilleon Tom Gilleon Tom Gilleon Tom Gilleon
