Original "Buffalo Warrior Spirit" Navajo Pen & Ink Sketch by Native American artist Frank Nez.

This is not a reproduction, this is an original work of art! This is a true collectors item. This original sketch was created by master Navajo artist Frank Nez. This intricate and detailed composition masterfully depicts the spirit of a Buffalo warrior chief flowing out from the smoke of a peace pipe. The detail and textures of this sketch are incredible. The frame covers up a little horizon with trees at the bottom. A nice touch that would show if re-framed. The frame is complimentary and keeps the work safe until it's in your hands. This is one of the finest examples of Nez's work that we've seen. This framed artwork is 16-1/2" by 13-3/4". Signed and dated by the artist F. Nez, '03.
