Greg Red Elk rencontré au Pow wow d'Ornans en 2008 est aussi un artiste peintre

My English name is Greg Red Elk and my Dakota name is He-Haka-Duta meaning Red Elk. I am a Vietnam Era Veteran, self-taught artist and started painting in October of 1997. I paint native peoples and symbolism and at first my paintings were works from photography. Today I paint images from my heart and past using symbolism. I hope to tell the story of my past, present, and future while bringing forth images that connect me to the spirit world. I feel like these spirits, my Ghost Faces, come to me because they want to be seen and painted

mon nom anglais est Greg Red Elk et mon nom Dakota est He-Haka Valkeakoski-Duta signifiant Wapitis rouge. Je suis un vétéran de la guerre du Vietnam, artiste autodidacte j'ai commencé la peinture en octobre 1997. Je peint les peuples Autochtones et des symboles et tout d'abord mes peintures étaient des œuvres d'après photographie. Aujourd'hui je peints des images avec mon cœur et passé à l'aide de symboles. J'espère raconter l'histoire de mon passé, présent et futur tout en apportant des images qui me connectent au monde de l'esprit de suite. Je me sens comme ces esprits, mes visages fantômes, me viennent parce qu'ils veulent être vu et peints.
