Yei

 The Yei is regarded as a supernatural being by the Navajo, and they are believed to be the first to inhabit the earth. Before the Yei left earth, they left instructions with the people on how to live an easier life.

The male Yei is depicted in sandpaintings with a round head and the female Yei has an angular head.

This untitled piece was inspired by Tony Abeyta, who is this amazing Native American Mixed Media Artist.  His new charcoal and ink wash drawings are beautiful.

I spent four hours in the studio printing yesterday and I got a lot accomplished.  I’m pleased with my horse series above and in need of more printed colors.

I have been experimenting in creating different size Native American Indian dolls. This doll measures about 9.25″tall and 3.5″wide. She is created with various fabrics, wood, leather, feathers, beads, and horsehair. She is available for purchase in my store.

Collagraph print W.I.P.(work in progress)

This is a new collagraph print I’ve just recently created and printed. I need to print many more with varying colors. This was a quick print to give me some idea of how the image was going to look. The look of the plate and an actual print can vary quite a bit.

Assemblage – Totem

This assemblage piece was created about a year ago using harvested tree bark that was given to me by a fellow club member. Other items are old rusted hardware, found objects, beads, and wire.

 

New Native Indian Maiden Dolls

I had posted earlier pics of some proto type Indian dolls I had been working on. Here is the finished product. She stands about 6.5″x2.5″ and is created out wood, feathers, leather, horse hair, clay,  & various fabrics. She has a more contemporary feel because of the way she is created. The front bodice of her dress is hand painted with designs. She is available for purchase at my store.
