INSPIRATION

Dakota Native American man, raised on the Lower Sioux Indian Community currently serving life sentence. Teepee represents the nomad lifestyle of Plains Native Americans Dakota-Sioux. Traditionally made out of buffalo hides, with nothing wasted of the buffalo. The four paintings, buffalo for honoring the buffalo, the prison bars dripping eagle feathers, the medicine wheel recognizes four races. The end of the trail invokes thought - is warrior dead or just out of trail? Genuine Native-American made.
