Jim Abeita (also known as James Abeita, Jimmy Abeita and James Abeyta; born 1947) is a Navajo oil painter from Crownpoint, New Mexico. He is best known for his realistic landscapes and portraits depicting his native people and their history and traditions. He was one of the first Native American artists to work in contemporary realism, painting with depth and shadow instead of in the flat-style traditional Native American art. Abeita is praised as a pioneering artist who modernized the Native American art scene, made it famous in the art market and paved the way for a new generation of artists.
