Mescalero Fire Dancer ~ Rance Hood (Comanche)
Why are you reporting this puzzle?
Lawrence (Rance) Hood is a Comanche Indian from Lawton, Oklahoma. He paints for his ancestors and strives to keep the old ways alive. “My grandfather taught me the peyote religion and told me stories about great Comanche warriors of the past. When my grandfather passed away he handed me down the medicine. I sleep in a room full of it and I pray a lot. Every morning and every evening, in the medicine ways. A lot of times I get visions when I’m sleeping. When I work around medicine I’ll get a vision or a title and I’ll see the scene and paint it.”
