Items related to A Life Made with Artists: Doris Littrell and the Oklahoma...
Some are born to paint. Others, to admire. And a few are born with the eye to spot great artistic talent and the passion to bring it to the world. Doris Littrell was always one of the latter. Whether tromping through mud to track down a promising canvas or whispering the needed word of encouragement in the ear of a struggling painter, she made her life with Native American artists. And in doing so, this longtime Oklahoma gallery owner helped make possible the contemporary Oklahoma Indian Art Movement. This is her true story--told in her words, in the words of the artists she championed, and those of the collectors who admired them both--graced by the art that Littrell loved so much. Book includes 32 pages of art by such renowned Native artists as Virginia Stroud, Robert Taylor, Mirac Creepingbear, and Benjamin Harjo.

Review:
A LIFE MADE WITH ARTISTS tells the life story of a truly remarkable and tenacious woman, Doris Littrell. Yet, it is far more than that. It chronicles the cultural awakening of contemporary Native American art in Oklahoma ...a story of a great person whose love of art and concern for others left a lasting mark. --David Boren, president, University of Oklahoma, and former Governor of Oklahoma
