First Light The Native Americans are a deeply spiritual people. They knew that the world is here for us to experience, and Oh!…what a world it is! Think about that time of day just before the sun comes up, when the air is still crisp and smells cool and refreshing. As they sit in a canoe, gently paddling, listening to the waves lap against the hull and swish with each lazy stroke of the paddle, the water dripping each time it’s lifted from the water. If they are gentle enough, they can hear a fish break the surface, deer browsing among the trees, and the morning chorus that the birds sing for all who will listen. And then, ever so gently, the light comes….and the vision will take your breath away! |

Simple Pleasures The forest calls. For the woodsman it is here where his spirit is most content. Though frightening to those who made their homes in the settlements, here he was most at home. Here he found shelter, food and freedom. Its beauty, such as the way light came through the leaves, or the antics of a squirrel, or the exuberance of a singing bird, could be a source of endless joy. Here he could experience the wonder found in simple pleasures. |

Golden Sunset Two hundred years ago, Lewis and Clark journeyed up the Missouri River in what was to become an historic expedition. Along the way, there were moments of adventure, of exertion and fatigue, of anxiety and of great discovery. There were also moments of quiet serenity and amazing beauty that were indelibly imprinted in the memory of its members. Who could forget those majestic mountains, those extraordinary people, or that incredible golden sunset? Coming Soon: Limited Edition S/N Giclée Prints |

Dawn's Gift Mornings are a beautiful time of day. Birds are singing, the air is vibrant, and the sky dances with color. Paddling a canoe gently as the mist rises off the water brings a feeling of peacefulness before the day's activities begin. It is a time of thoughtfulness and quiet serenity as the world awakens. It is dawn's gift. Image size: 25 1/2 x 15 3/4 inches. Poster. $30.00 includes shipping and handling. Click on image for a larger version. |

With the arrival of the Europeans began a period of great cultural change for the Native Americans. Some of these changes, such as the introduction of cloth, metal and other trade goods, were eagerly embraced, while other changes were met with resistance and regret. But one thing was for sure, the native cultures would never again be the same. Here we see two people on a short journey not too far from their village. Both show a strong influence of European contact; linen and wool clothing, glass trade beads, metal knives, trade silver jewelry, powder horn and musket. Yet amidst the swirl of these turbulent times, their heritage still flows through their veins. On the bluffs behind them is a reminder of the old ways: meaningful symbols written in iron oxide by their ancestors. A legacy of history and old teaching left behind by forgotten voices.

Fort Osage When I was a boy. I used to love making play forts. Even now, decades later, an old fort still stirs the imagination and brings a feeling of adventure. Climb the blockhouse and overlook the Missouri River. Watch the blacksmith working in his shop. See the soldier’s barracks and the factory house and learn how people lived and worked together on the frontier. Imagine. Coming Soon: Limited Edition S/N Giclée Prints
