Odle
d. 1934
Odle was an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Kiowa artist Odle made bold black-and-white drawings on paper and hide in the 1920s. His Untitled (1925) shows a single powerful figure in profile, filled with dense cross-hatching that makes the form feel almost carved. These spare, rhythmic works sit between ledger art and personal sketchbook pages. See how the flat background pushes the image forward, and imagine the same design inked on a parfleche box or a winter count robe.
