About the artwork -

This story represents a gathering of woman with their young daughters; they are now going to be taking in the middle of the circle to our elders whereby they will be taught our traditional ways full of knowledge and wisdom.  They can then go on their way and teach their children what was handed down to them in the circle of life.
