The bolo itself is a dimensional cast Ute warrior crafted from bronze. It is placed on a black and white braided horsehair cord. Oreland C.

Joe Sr.’s first-grade teacher encouraged him to continue his crayon drawings, he knew he wanted to be an artist. The son of a Southern Ute father and a Navajo mother, he grew up in a family that understood and inspired his creativity and talents. Growing up on the Navajo reservation not only taught him Native American traditions and customs but also provided him with a spiritual awareness.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne of Joe’s most influential and significant experiences was traveling to France in 1978 with a group of Native American dancers. This first experience with Europe and European art and culture was transforming. His later excursions to Paris museums and the Palace of Versailles opened up a new world to him. A visit to Italy further broadened his horizons.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJoe’s sculpture, Buffalo Sunrise, was the 2006 Ann Noble Brown Prix de West Purchase Award winner.
