Wonder capture of movement and emotion. It is normal to tear up, for those of us who love and appreciate the Native culture, spirituality and art. I too fill with emotion as I reflect on a strong people who had a genuine love for the earth, their families and walked in gratitude for everything the great spirit provided. Oh, if more of humanity could walk the red road and find peace.
Love ve your images. I am a fine artist and have painted several Native American paintings. Could I have your permission to paint a few of your emotive images? I will respect your usage requirements. Thank you for sharing your talent.

Beautiful photo.
I think I have taken photos of the same dancer at the Poarch Creek Indians Annual Thanksgiving Pow Wow in Atmore, Alabama in 2008. The beadwork and his clothing are very similar to what the Native American is wearing in my drawing. [link]
Do you know this dancer's name? I had prints made of the drawing, because I wanted to send one to him. Any help in identifying him and contacting him would be appreciated.

They do look very similar, I can see if I can contact the council about a possible name since they usually contact the dancers for the pow wow.
