Meet Jaune Quick-To-See Smith

An interview with the artist Jaune Quick-to-See Smith

Jaune Quick-To-See Smith grew up on the Flathead Reservation in Montana and traveled around the Pacific Northwest and California with her father, who was a horse trader. Smith decided she wanted to be an artist after watching a film on the French painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. She painted a goatee on her face with axle grease and borrowed a neighbor’s beret so she could be photographed posing as the famous artist. 在 1958, Smith enrolled at Olympic College in Bremerton, 华盛顿. She had to take many breaks from college in order to earn money, however, and didn’t earn her degree until 1976. She moved to Albuquerque, where she studied at the University of New Mexico and founded the Grey Canyon group of contemporary Native American artists.
