<h2>Authentic Handmade Tipis</h2>
<p><strong>by Western Canvas</strong>
<p>While tipis exhibit a pictorial history of Plains Indian life and represent a symbol of the American West, they remain contemporary. Western Canvas blends the popular theme of Western Design with authentic reproduction to create livable and instructional tipis, equally at home in suburban backyards and world renowned museum collections. <p>Western Canvas takes pride in the authenticity of their tipis, which are patterned after original Native American designs. Their tipi construction methods are researched through conventional sources, such as libraries and other resource centers. They also contact tribal elders and other knowledgeable Native Americans when necessary, to acquire the additional knowledge and guidance they demand, to replicate their tipis as precisely as possible. In striving to preserve the historical aspect of the tipi art of the West, they feature on their tipis the painting talents of Blackfeet elder <em>George Kicking Woman</em> and <em>Al Chandler</em>, a Gros Ventre Native American, both from Montana.
