Indian Maiden

 I've had this picture for along time.It is a lithograph of a indian maiden.She reminds me of my sister Colleen when she was younger.

Feel free to use the image as you would like.

This is the finished paper doll dress and doll so far.I need to get her colored and cut out.Then they will go into a diorama picture frame for the wall.
That will be another piece of work in it's self.

My gourd art/Sun Doll

The blood of the first people

lives on in me.This is my sunbird doll.

It is made from rooster

feathers and a gourd.

In the American Indian tradition

Sun Bird was the name of

an indian maiden.

An indian warrior

wrote this song about her:

Oh, pretty Sun Bird,

— just whisper one word—
To guide me on my way

day by day 'neath the prairie sky;
And when I'm dreaming—

'mid camp fires gleaming—
My love star shines for you,

all for you, my sun Bird.
