and th music is great too!
And sometimes our dreams they float like anchors in hopeless waters oh way down here
Sometimes it seems that all that matters most are all the things that you can't keep

Check out Enoch Kelly Haney as well.He does  some really cool Native American subjects,he was a senator from Colorado (might still be)as well as a Native American. He knows his subject matter well.--Bone

Whats funny to me about the pics of the indian hunched down on his knees fixing to shoot at turkey is how unrealistic it is.That is very hard to do.Very hard on the knees.And you may have to sit like that for an hour at times before the animal gets close enough to shoot and by then you can't even feel your legs anymore...LOL...I still find myself in that position every year but man its tough.

I get like that all the time while calling or trying to get our ground squirrels.Not saying I ever hit any thing while shooting like that.Do some times.

Thanks for sharing that with us. Great art and music. I've got some Native American Flute music on CD and it's beautiful and soothing. My Grandmother was full-blooded Cherokee, but I never knew her. She died when my Dad was young.

Anyone interested in depictions of Native Americans should google George Catlin. He was an American artist who started painting portraits and the Indian way of life starting in the 1830's. He wanted to record the "vanishing race" and accurately depicted them as the noble people they were....Phil

Actually Enoch Kelly Haney is from Oklahoma, and the Seminole Nation.

He has done some really wonderful American Indian artwork, including the statue atop the dome on our capitol building.

I have the advantage of hiking the canyons of Utah and Arizona. As an archer I enjoy thinking of where I would setup a blind to hunt game. To my pleasure, I've found that I'm not the only one to think alike, and have found many pictographs where ancient archers chose their spots.

I call them 'fingershooter graffiti'.

that artwork is just amazing. that song, "after the 49". does anyone know what that means or what it refers to? i assume it's something with native american culture. joanne shenandoah has a beautiful voice.
