Early lifeVirginia Stroud was born on 13 March 1951 in Madera, California. Her mother died when she was eleven, so Stroud moved to Muskogee, Oklahoma to live with her sister. She sold her first painting at the age of 13.[2] Stroud graduated from Muskogee High School in 1968. From 1968 to 1970, she attended Bacone College and studied art under Cheyenne painter Dick West, who made her his studio assistant. She then attended the University of Oklahoma.[2] In her late 20s, Stroud was adopted, following Kiowa tradition, as a daughter of Evelyn Tahome and Jacob Ahtone, a Kiowa couple.[2] Pageants and the Tear DressIn 1969, Stroud served as Miss Cherokee Tribal Princess. She went on to win the title Miss National Congress of American Indians in 1970, and in 1971, she was crowned Miss Indian America XVII.[2][3] When Stroud competed for the title of princess in 1969, Cherokee women wanted her to represent the tribe in a "traditional" Cherokee outfit, which was problematic since Cherokee women wore contemporary mainstream fashions for at least two centuries and wore very little clothing before that. A committee of Cherokee women, appointed by Chief W. W. Keeler designed a dress based on a hundred-year-old Cherokee dress owned by a Cherokee lady, Wynona Day, and from surrounding Southeast tribes' formal regalia, and they created the "Tear Dress."[4][5] Art careerStroud paints with tempera and gouache and is a fine art printmaker.[2] She also has written and illustrated several children's books. She draws inspirations from ancient pictographs and historical ledger art. Over her career, Stroud developed a narrative style with minimal facial details in her people and lavish floral backgrounds.[6] She also paints kinetic wooden sculptures and fine art furniture. Her work is in such public collections as the Gilcrease Museum, Millicent Rogers Museum, Philbrook Museum of Art,[2] Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art,[6] Cherokee Heritage Center, and Cherokee Nation Entertainment. Of her work, Stroud says, "I paint for my people. Art is a way for our culture to survive... perhaps the only way."[6] HonorsIn 1970, Stroud became the youngest Native artists to win first place in the Woodlands division of the Philbrook Museum's annual juried art show.[6] In 1982, the Indian Arts and Crafts Association honored Stroud as Artist of the Year.[7] The Five Civilized Tribes Museum declared Stroud a Master Artist in 1986.[2] In 2000, she was given the Cherokee Medal of Honor.[3] Published works
