This series is a symbolic tribute to my ancestors and they serve an homage to their journey’s, their footsteps and their lifespans. From Mongolia to the Siberian Straits, to an Alaskan Coastal Tribe then to the Plains where I located one relative of mine from the Lakota Sioux Reservation who fought in The Battle Of Wounded Knee. Then onto Oklahoma “Indian Country” as it was referred to for years to the Cherokee Nation where my great grandmother and all of her siblings were Cherokee Slaves, as her parents were as well. My great grandmother had two daughters Ojanna and Oleta. Ojanna, my grandmother a Cherokee woman died before I could meet her as she was born in the early 1900’s. The use of eagles and ravens are commonly featured in both Native American life and art.
