Great stuff - i am impressed !!!!!

I was also surprised to read about Fort Stanwix - its about 10 miles from where i live. LOL I see a lot of indian art around here ...
If i may be curious - any particular reason you picked this tribe ?

Yes, actually

I made all that stuff for my daughter's 2nd grade class. They were studying East Coast Native Americans.

I also have a huge respect for the Iroquois Nation. They were the first peoples to actually apply democratic principles to their daily life. Way before the Europeans showed up and before the New World became the Colonies.

I must say, you do have an eye for proportions, especially notable in your horses and human subjects...the Rockwood piece in particular.. and the detail... that's what really ties it all together in your work. Folds in the clothing, shadows in the horse's muscles and head. Very nice work. The Stark Store, Street View building comes right off the canvas. I was checking out the curtains and shades in the windows. Nice stuff. The time and effort really shows. :clap: I especially like the way your backgrounds and edges of the foreground melt away and have a slightly watery effect. ...And you're mutli-talented in crafts to boot! Wow!

Thank you, pl*co

I owe all that to the people who critiqued my work on WetCanvas! They can be a ruthless lot at times, but they were usually correct.
