Robert “Running Fisher” Upham’s ledger pieces are as much about history and education as they are about art. To fully appreciate his work, is to understand the stories and cultural context behind each piece.  Many of the images in this gallery are clickable.  Clicking through will lead you to Robert’s explanations of his images. 

We’re rolling out our Shopify shop–for original crafts, original art by Robert Upham and other Indian artists, as well as upcycled clothing embellished by heat transfers of Robert’s original art.   Check out our shop here. 

Print on Demand versions of many of his works are available at ArtSpan or FineArtAmerica.

Robert is always working on new originals.  To inquire, please email at
