Drawings are at once the heartbeat, the bones, the musculature, and the spirit of all art. Drawings constitute a unique language for each artist, and the viewer is privileged to glimpse the skeletal elements of the art process first-hand. Drawings are personal: they reveal , they are intended as notes, they are a means to an end, and they represent the embryo of genius...the moment of an artist's truth.

Wind
No group more than the Native American Indians understood the importance of “wind”, in relation to their daily lives. It propelled their canoes, carried scent of their animals in the midst of a hunt, notified tribe-members of an emeny’s presence. It brought forth clouds that provided rain, sent smoke signals to neighboring tribes, and provided force through wind instruments, thus resulting in beautiful melody.

Ga-do-de-tsa do brother man? This is one of your finest pieces.
beautiful drawing!
excellent job!
I think I like the description as much as anything else. The soft tonal archival recording relays a tranquil and nostalgic envy upon these people. I wish they were here today, and I would join in ceremony. Peace Pipe?

Being strongly drawn to Native Americans, this really resonated with me. Nice job! Thanks for sharing.
Stunning piece! Like the comment too, brings out the meaning of the drawing beautifully.
