    My painting shows Crazy Horse standing in front of his exploit robe which chronicles the famous battle with Custer in 1876.

    The painted hail stones and lightning bolt on his face depict his personal power that he received in a vision. He most commonly wore the skin of a kestrel in his hair but a credible account relates that he occasionally wore a full mounted kestrel as a headdress. The eagle thigh bone whistle, war club, spotted buffalo calf cape and an 1866 Winchester Yellow Boy rifle all were mentioned in historic documents as part of his battle gear.

    No photo of Crazy Horse exists - only eye witness descriptions.
