Burgess Roye
Full Blood Ponca Indian

Tribal Artist RIP 1944 - 2015

"Some say the old ways were officially over, but we vowed we would never forget our ways, our culture. It lives on in our drums and dances...and it will always live on...inscribed in our hearts by our stories, and forever told with our brush and paint".

"...On being in jail, some cussed, while others cried. I felt the same as if I were at home in my living room. I didn’t see it as a place of punishment, rather a place to search my soul, and then, to express it in my paintings." Burgess Roye
