This is an original carved oak Native American Indian bust by Bruce Wynne from circa 1976. Wynne was a Native American artist who, at one time, served as Tribal Chairman on the Spokane Reservation. As an artist, he worked in various mediums including graphite, charcoal, and acrylic painting. He was, however, mainly considered a sculptor and worked in wood and stone such as alabaster, limestone and granite. In November of 1978, Wynne was featured in Southwest Art magazine. This piece was hand carved by Wynne and shows the Indian maiden with long braided hair and a dentalia shell dress. The sculpture is well executed showing fine detail and incredible artistic talent and ability. The carving is signed on the back "B. Wynne 76". The carved Indian bust is in good condition. It measures 12" wide and is 18.25" tall.
