Randy Lee White (also known as Whitehorse, b. Lubbock, Texas, 1951). Mixed Media. 1980. Three fascinating pictograph-inspired mixed media works by artist Randy Lee White. Each of the three works is each signed "R. Lee White '80" with a horse head motif. One sheet depicts two pairs of indigenous peoples and one figure in profile; another depicts a dramatic conflict between a European on horseback and native peoples, all of whom wield weapons; and finally, the third depicts a native chief or warrior donning an elaborate outfit and headdress with several horse heads and figures' legs surrounding him. While it is possible that these were intended to be distinct works, they also work well as a trio as they were created with the same style, complementary motifs, lively color palette, and a wonderful stippled background. Size of each: 9" L x 12" W (22.9 cm x 30.5 cm)
White’s work has been collected by various museums, including The Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C., and the Art Institute of Chicago, Illinois.
