Lance Smith, Cherokee Artist from South Dakota (US)

 


Enrolled Native American, Cherokee, self-taught, born in Sallisaw, Oklahoma, living in South Dakota over 34 years with his Lakota/Dakota wife Lanni, son and family.

My creative abilities are a gift from the Creator. My works are a gift to humanity. Through creation of my art, I am able to feel the presence of a higher power expressing who I am and how I feel. I hope to connect with others through my art and to somehow make the world a better place. I feel a responsibility to represent my Native culture and people and ensure the arts continue for future generations...
