R.C. Gorman created Navajo Women Chanters in 1965, a oil pastel held in the gallery’s celebrated catalog. Oil pastel was Gorman’s most personal medium — worked directly by hand, with the velvety surface and living line that define his original works on paper.
Gorman’s gallery catalog spans prints, drawings, sculpture, and ceramics, and this work sits within that celebrated tradition. Works on paper are best framed under glass, where the pastel surface keeps its full depth of color. It suits collections focused on oil pastel work by R.C. Gorman and makes a grounded acquisition for collectors of Southwestern art and Native American fine art.
The gallery ships with care and can provide further photographs and condition details for this piece on request.
