IAIS is honored to highlight the artistry of Jeanne Rorex Bridges during the months of February and March. She is an award-winning artist of Cherokee descent.  She lives in eastern Oklahoma on part of the farm land where she as raised.  Jeanne attended Bacone College in Muskogee, OK where one of her courses included Indian art.  This is a flat style of painting originated by the "Kiowa Five".

For this exhibit we are featuring her "Sisters Series".  For several years, she has incorporated painting depicting the shared history of Southeastern Indians and African Americans with her Native American work. The exhibit includes an assortment of ceramic tiles (with easel backs), prints, a framed tile and more. All items are for sale.

Artist Corner and Sale opens in our "Four Directions" gift shop on Sunday, February 1, 2015 and runs through March 31, 2015.  There is no charge to view this exhibit.
