No tribe put "art" on their tipis, since that word is used to describe purely decorative painting or drawing.
Medicine lodges and the lodges of important warriors or chiefs were painted with designs that had either sacred and spiritual significance or indicated the war deeds of the warrior who lived there, so it was far more than simply art.
Very few Lakota Sioux tipis were painted in this way - most were left plain. Some had other forms of embelishment, such as the medicine lodge of Slow Bull, which had small locks of hair sewn to the cover.

The plains Sioux Indians lived in tipis made out of buffalo hides and wooden poles. They are 15 - 20 feet in diameter. The tipis have flaps on the top that could be opened and closed to account for fires inside the tipi and for bad weather. They also contained hooks on the insides to hang weapons, tools and supplies. They relied on tipis for their housing since they're existence was centered around buffalo. They were a migratory tribe based on the presence of buffalo, and tipis were quick and easy to take down and put up. But, the Sioux on the east coast lived in places other than Tipis.
Until the Dakota Sioux were put on reservations they were able to use their environment to its fullest extent. They were hunters and gathers. Often they moved theircamp to follow the herds of Buffalo . They used every part of the Buffalo they killed and would not kill more than they needed. The cultural beliefs concerning the care of the earth and the how they were connected to it and the environment was very important. We could take some lessons from them on how to care for our environment. They understood that the environment was a part of them and kept them alive.
The Sioux were opportunistic hunter gatherers, like most other Native American tribes. To translate, they ate what they could hunt, catch, farm or pick - Buffalo, Elk, Deer, Cherries and potatoes just to name a few. The Sioux Indians used to eat the buffalo that the men hunted and the women cooked over a fire. All parts of the buffalo were used: None was wasted. A buffalo tongue was a delicacy for the Sioux Indians.

The Sioux are Native American and First Nations people in North America.
They were nomads (always on the move.) They lived in temporary tipis which were quick to put up and down which were carried on travois.

The Sioux followed the buffalo herds around the plains. With the Transcontinental Rail-road (completed 1869), the herd was divided into two, with the Southern Herd destroyed in 1875 and the Northern Herd destroyed in 1883. The buffalo hunt ended before this though as the Sioux were put into reservations, starting with the Great Sioux Reservation, which was a good size, then working it down until it was no longer possible for them to hunt the buffalo. It decreased in size following a series of wars with the White Settlers, with the peak in 1876 at the Little Bighorn following the discovery of gold in the Black Hills (which were sacred to all Indians). The Indians could not leave the reservations to hunt buffalo, which is why the buffalo hunt ended way before the destruction of the herds.
The Pueblo Indians put animal paintings on their pottery.
No, art is simply, how can I put it. Art.
