Cherokee Nation And Indian Art

BILL RABBIT

Cherokee

Bill Rabbit was born in Wyoming of Cherokee ancestry. He chased rabbits, listened to the wind, old legends and stories, watched colors changing in the skies and noticed the form of things around him.

He is self-taught in jewelry making and acrylic painting. “I am influenced by all artists,” he says, and he tries to capture something of their spirit through experimentation, out of admiration for their skies, colors and forms.

Now he lives within the Cherokee Nation in northeast Oklahoma. Viet Nam taught him that life’s moments are precious and so he is especially pleased to be working at what he loves.

He does little preliminary sketching, allowing color to shape his forms, his paintings. He’s a member of IACA, SWAIA, the Cherokee Historical Society, Who’s Who in American Art and IACA’s 1989 Artist of the Year.
