My friend Dwayne “Chuck” Wilcox, Oglala Lakota artist… is a damn funny man and a serious National Treasure. Take some time and look at his magnificent work: www.doghatstudio.com. Here’s what was written about him by the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard University: www.peabody.harvard.edu

‘Mr. Wilcox’s drawings and paintings “ledger-style” artwork reflects a contemporary way of life rather than the past, often depicting pow-wows, people preparing for dances, families spending time together and other everyday scenes. According to Mr. Wilcox, “I’m alive now. Our time is just as important as the past” Chuck was raised on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota…’ Yo, I love this guy
