Micqaela Jones is an award-winning Shoshone painter and the artist behind Tosa Wihi Studios, named in honor of her White Knife clan. 

With a professional career spanning more than 25 years, she has developed a distinctive body of work that reflects a deep respect for culture, heritage, and the natural world. Raised on the Duck Valley Indian Reservation in northeastern Nevada, Jones draws inspiration from wild landscapes, generational traditions, and the enduring strength of community. Her artwork explores themes of memory, connection, and identity through the lens of her tribal experiences. Known for her expressive use of color, layered textures, and emotionally resonant imagery, Jones often features animals and human figures that symbolize resilience, protection, and place. Her compositions balance fine detail with bold movement, inviting viewers to engage both visually and emotionally.

Micqaela’s work has been exhibited nationally and collected internationally, with paintings held in museums, cultural institutions, and private collections across the United States, Canada, and Europe. Her work has been licensed for health and environmental campaigns and featured in permanent public art installations and curated exhibitions that celebrate Indigenous voices and contemporary Native art.

Each work is part of a limited and evolving portfolio, created with intention, discipline, and a strong sense of purpose. Her paintings offer lasting value to collectors who seek original work rooted in identity, history, and vision. Now based in Boise, Idaho, Jones continues to produce artwork with a strong studio practice and an unwavering commitment to storytelling through visual form. Her studio, Tosa Wihi Studios, is a space dedicated to craftsmanship, creativity, and the ongoing celebration of Native experience in the modern world.
