About the Book

This book is a comprehensive analysis of the formal qualities of Native art from the Pacific Northwest coast of North America. It explores the ways in which Native artists use line, shape, color, and texture to create visually stunning and meaningful works of art.

The book is divided into four chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of form. The first chapter, "Line," examines the ways in which Native artists use line to create movement, rhythm, and emphasis. The second chapter, "Shape," explores the ways in which Native artists use shape to create form, depth, and balance. The third chapter, "Color," examines the ways in which Native artists use color to create contrast, harmony, and symbolism. The fourth chapter, "Texture," explores the ways in which Native artists use texture to create visual interest, depth, and tactile appeal.
