JD Challenger was born in Oklahoma with a creative fire that first began
to smolder when he was a very young child. After moving to Taos,
New Mexico, Challenger enjoyed success as an artist painting landscapes.
Upon witnessing a Ghost Dance ceremony being filmed
for a movie, Challenger came face to face with his mission
in life. "As I stood there watching the chanting and the dancing,
I knew what I wanted to paint... nothing had ever been clearer."
JD Challenger paints the story of a people rich in heritage
and traditions; stories sometimes poignant, often angry...
but always powerful and demanding to be told. Each portrait
speaks its own truth. Challenger is the vessel that paints that truth.
White Mans Medicine is a sold out print. It was published in 1998.
