BOLD SPIRIT Pen ft Ink ir x 24" Limited Edition 200 S/N I0A/P TV indigenous people of North America cespecfed and honored Mother ?arth because she nurtured and provided them with tV essentials of life. Their campfire stories, often filled with laughter, taught lessons from tV Great Almighty; how he encouraged them to live harmoniously with themselves and others; and how he taught them to treat and respect all things as a living spirit. This was V Way for them. Yet, the Newcomers to this bountiful country tabled the Native Americans-the First ones on tV land-as uncivilized, barbarous, and bloodthirsty savages. This point of view overwhelmed tV Native Americans, and set the stage for how history would ultimately treat them. Policies and programs, so often translated through BJA directives, many times abolished Native American identities. The First Ones on the Land were demoralized, shamed, and dropped on tV doorstep of distinction. Jn spite of history, some tribes survived while otVrs were not so fortunate. Today, despite history's backward glance, there is a current effort by Native Americans to retain what they hatre left of their Traditions, their Culture, -tVir-bonguoge, Vir Land. They have survived! As my next print? "Bold Spirit" ?0 have depicted a Alotive American with one foot firmly planted in the past, and , the other pointed westward.
