Anthony Chee Emerson
Today Anthony's paintings portray Navajos in all aspects of life. Some paintings have a story behind them and others are based on repetitive design. Using a variety of colors, Anthony gives each painting the right effect for the smoothness and balance of colors, which can brighten one's home or one's heart. His work is available in original paintings, prints and illustrations for children's books.
The Four directions defines Navajo Philosophy, the East, South, West and North.These Directions symbolize concepts of Thinking, Colors, Seasons, Life , Elements, and times of day, Stones and our Four Sacred Mountains, which within this area we are at peace within ourselves.
Anthony Chee Emerson has taken these concepts and translated them to his art.
Anthony resides in Kirtland, New Mexico with his wife, Michele, and their two children, Zachary and Cheyanne. Zachary's interests are in math and science, Cheyanne's interests are art softball and her friends. Anthony encourages them both to paint
