Chief Joseph came upon his father burial site to find it plowed under, a very sad experience for one of our native American's storied life, which brought tears to a proud warrior.
A Dakota Indian, Long Feather, adapted his ways to the Christian teaching that traveled west over lands that once belonged only to him and other native Americans.
I am thankful for the Avista Corporation's Best Of Show Award that was awarded me last Thursday night at the Prichard Gallery. This painting was entered into the Palouse Watercolor Socius Regional Show at the University of Idaho. Nancy Ann Stonington was the Juror in this four-state show.
The first painting "Apple Thief" is sold. My second attempt at our Woodpecker friend is titled "Winter Feast". Stop by if you are on Camano during Mother's Day weekend and see my new work.
