Early Paintings

Early paintings of Tlingit artist, Robert Davis Hoffmann. I began painting in my own experimental Tlingit formline style very early on. Although the below images are dated from 1984, I never took photos of my Tlingit artwork. Please forgive the low quality of these images; they are recovered from water-damaged 35mm slides.
