Jerome Richard Tiger (July 8, 1941 – August 13, 1967) was a Muscogee Nation-Seminole painter from Oklahoma.[1] Tiger produced hundreds of paintings from 1962 until his death in 1967.[1][2]
A fullblood Muscogee Creek-Seminole, Tiger's style is said to be a combination of "spiritual vision, humane understanding, and technical virtuosity" but with traditional subject matter and composition.[1]
His paintings first gained recognition at the Philbrook Museum of Art.[2]
