I have been interested in native culture since I was a child. Then, as a young man attending art school in Pittsburgh, I was able to spend many an hour with the Carnegie Museum’s collection of native American art and artifacts. Such an energy comes through these items.
This collage came about from the discarded scraps of another piece I was working on last week. I left it rougher than most. I’m happy with its simplicity and the blurry whitewashed feeling of being in the strong sun.
