Example.
The Sun Dance was the most spectacular and important religious
ceremony of the Plains Indians of the 19th century. It was designed
to bring renewal – the spiritual rebirth of its participants,
harmony between all living beings, and the return of the
all-important buffalo. Incorporating many of the sacred materials
and symbolic elements of the Sun Dance ceremony into her design
– a sage noseband, pictograph horses traveling from each of
the four sacred directions, a white buffalo skull, a war bonnet sun
graphic – this Montana graphic artist has created a Pony that
represents the essence of the Sun Dance: renewal and balance, and
the reaffirmation of relationships between people and nature.
For thirty years this versatile Minnesota artist made a living
as an illustrator and graphic artist, before expanding to include
oil painting, woodcarving and Pony painting.
