About the Item

Cliff Bahnimptewa (Native American, 1937-1984) was a Native American artist from the village of Old Oraibi, Hopi Third Mesa. He was a member of the Parro Clan and attended the Phoenix Indian School. Bahnmiptewa learned to carve kachina figures from his grandfather, but was a self-taught painter, and his rich knowledge of his clan and ceremonial affiliations and kachina carvings allowed him to paint with precise detail and authenticity. Bahnimptewa used watercolors and tempera in his kachina paintings, which are more dancing performers than dolls.
Forty eight of Bahnimptewa's paintings were reproduced in Dancing Kachinas, a 1971 publication. His paintings were also featured in a volume Kachinas: A Hopi Artist's Documentary by Barton Wright, 1973.

Robert Moesle was born in San Jose, California in 1932. He graduated from San Jose State College and attended The Ruskin School of Art, Oxford University, England. Moesle lives in the Chateau region of France, which he finds to be an ideal location for a watercolorist. Moesle paints outside and enjoys watching the landscape change through the seasons. Unlike most watercolorists, Moesle takes his time painting and tries to capture the feeling of durability in his subjects. Moesle has exhibited his work in shows in London, Paris and throughout the United States.
