“Eagle She Bear” acrylic on canvas is 50″w x 40″h
Since 1983, I’ve completed 50+ ceremonial robes in the Chilkat, Ravenstail and button blanket styles. I am creating a contemporary “mate” of each robe created in one of three mediums including acrylic painting, charcoal, or collage.
About 10 years ago the late Deloresa Cadiente commissioned a button robe from me; she was Eagle Teikweidee Bear Clan. This acrylic painting on canvas is the contemporary “mate” to the robe.
This painting is currently in a show entitled “The Spirit of Woman” which recently opened at the Wild Spirit Gallery in Pagosa Springs, Colorado.
