Pride of the Piegan


"Pride of the Piegan" (2014)
By, Z.S. Liang
Oil and canvas
(31 in x 48 in)


Z.S. Liang is a painter.  He got his inspirationg from studying the Wampanoag Indian culture and became friends with many of the tribes.  His paintings since then revolve around Native American Indian cultures.  This painting is of a warrior holding  spear with no fear headed into battle while riding a beautiful white war horse.  The warrior is proud of his horse and is proud to be headed to war.  Pride is another one of the seven deadly sins however in this painting pride does not take over the Indian in a negative way.
