JBT LEDGER ART COLLECTION 2015-2023
Discover the Storytelling Beauty of Ledger Art – A Unique Native American Tradition
Welcome to our Ledger Art collection, where history, culture, and creativity come together in a vibrant and meaningful way. Ledger art is a distinctive form of Native American expression, born from the resourcefulness of Indigenous artists who transformed ledger books and other paper documents into canvases for their stories.
Originally created by Plains tribes in the 19th century, ledger art captures the essence of Native life, spirituality, and resilience through intricate drawings and vivid colors. Each piece is a window into the past, offering a glimpse of battles, ceremonies, daily life, and the enduring spirit of Native peoples.
In our boutique, we celebrate this powerful art form by offering authentic ledger art pieces and prints created by Joanne to honor and reinterpret this tradition. Whether you’re drawn to the historical significance, the striking visuals, or the cultural depth, these works of art are sure to inspire and connect you to her rich Shoshone heritage.
Explore our collection and bring home a piece of history that continues to tell stories today.
