U-Mo'n-Ho'n (Upstream)

One more post and this should be done. I believe I've got the regalia done to my satisfaction. I'm waiting until the workable fix is workable before I start on the coloring in the face. I will probably also liven up the head dress some more also.

This is a picture of my niece Lizzie. It was taken at the Sunken Gardens in Lincoln. It's done on cream colored pastel paper with Carbon Pencil. This is another new medium for me. It's like a cross between graphite and Charcoal. It doesn't give the glare that graphite does but not as messy as charcoal. I can't wait to try it on Bristol Vellum paper.

U-Mo'n-Ho'n (upstream)

I decided to use the more earth tone colors to do the regalia. They remind me of fall indian corn. I've done the research I wanted and now I have a title U-Mo'n-Ho'n which is the indian word we translated into the word Omaha. It means upstream.
