Silver Night

This piece has been acquired by the National Museum of the American Indian (Smithsonian Institution) for their collection.

Stream: “Trying to be true to the principals that were followed by the Aleut people, materials used were what they had in their environment: this is what I did in creating “Silver Night.” Experimentation in the use of common source materials is what I always wanted to experiment with. The creation is in the mind’s eye of the artist. I found my idea flowing from the same concept. The shape and form and decorative elements follow the same traditional iconic and functional purposes found today in the time honored originals.”
