Mike Larsen
Oct. 8, 2009 - March 26, 2010

The series of 24 original oil paintings of Chickasaw elders was created after an overwhelming reaction to Norman artist Mike Larsen’s first series, They Know Who They Are, on the same subject. The paintings are accompanied by quotes and oral histories.

Larsen began the series by interviewing his Chickasaw elders. He wanted to hear their stories and connect with their strength of spirit to share that beauty with others.

"Our elders are our treasures. We are thrilled they have been brought to life in a series of paintings by such an outstanding Chickasaw artist."
Gov. Bill Anoatubby of the Chickasaw Nation and a board member for the Oklahoma Heritage Association and Gaylord-Pickens Museum

"They Know Who They Are was such a powerful collection, and we are thrilled to debut its successor. The paintings themselves are beautiful, but it is the strength and grace portrayed in the subjects that is truly captivating."
Shannon L. Nance, president of the Association & Museum
