••••• Monte painted his bison at West Acres, home of his sponsor. This bison features the bright colors that can be found on Monte’s painting…but there are also earthy aspects to it to, for example, the horns are painted with a textured grey paint, giving it a rough “rock-like” appearance.••••• (Arikara/Hidasta) or better know in the Art world as Black Pinto Horse, best expresses himself through the use of a collection of vibrant colors, gradient hues, shapes and symbols of his traditions. His work reflects his First Nation culture and the applied color imitates the bright, bold application of Expressionism and the 20th century “Fauvism Movement”. The overall compositions of both loose and hard-edged images are designed to create a deep manifestation of culture, faith and love. The symbolism and representational elements speak emotional silence. His key phrase, “We are on this earth for such a short time, if you’re going to shine, shine brightly”, best describes the work of Black Pinto Horse (Monte Yellow Bird). |
