| Grey Hawk - This painting
is based on a pony who possessed spirit, stamina, and
speed. The Red Tailed Hawk feathers are strong medicine
for the Cherokee Upper World and endow the bearer with
strength and swiftness of flight. The Cherokee did
not paint their horses with war paint.
Grey Hawk was chosen for the month of December in the
2002 Cherokee Calendar, hence his winter coat.
Price for Original: On request
(all copy rights retained by artist)
Additional Note:
The Southeastern tribes began riding and using horses
for utilitarian purposes after introduction by Europeans.
It is understandable that pride of ownership would develop
for horses with particular abilities and personalities.
