About the Winner

Art can be timeless and choosing to live the life of an artist seems equally so. Petroglyphs - the paintings found on rocks and in caves - are the oldest artform in the world, and have been chosen by Thunder Eagle a Lakota/Oglala Sioux artist as his creative expression and his boomer business. Petroglyphs were created to give magic and spiritual power to civilizations and fertility to the ancestral people. The work of Thunder Eagle continues this spirit. He brings new life to this most ancient medium. Here's what Thunder Eagle shared with us about his one of a kind sterling silver jewelry: "During Dream Time, the spirit figures on the piece become alive and walk off the rock to magically work their spiritual medicine. To wear Thunder Eagle creations completes a circle and the power of the most ancient people are connected to you." But he had us at the very mention of his name, which correlated nicely to "boom"-er, if you think about it.
