	Totsohnii Girl The Totsohnii Girl is riding her seahorse in the valley of Monument Valley, Navajoland. Up above are two sharks circling around in the illuminating sunlight. The rider is holding her spear in her right hand. She might be hunting the two sharks or she might be hiding from the two man eaters. The seahorse looks a lot like a dragon. I dedicate this painting to the Totsohnii people. Totsohnii's are one of the Navajo clans. The Totsohnii people believe that they are coming from the water. They are the people of the ocean and believe the origin of life started from a body of water. The painting is done on a masonite board and the dimension is 38"x56". It was completed in 2003. It has a 4 inch woooden frame. There is a lot of work in this particular painting. IT IS AVAILABLE.

The painting has only tones blue and tones of orange color. The rest of the painting is black and white. It was completed in 2006 and IS SOLD.
	The Howling This is an oil painting on paper. It's dimension is 32.5"x 38.5" with it's custom steel frame. The shape-shifter changes into a bear or dog-like creature. There are four changing phases. The light blue moon is swirling in the background. Completed in August 2001. In the past, I have done several paintings of shape-shifters. One of them won the Best of Painting division at the Navajo Show, Museum of Northern Arizona, in 1994 and was also published in the November 94 issue of Arizona Highways. My shape-shifter paintings usually show a man turning into an animal. The traditional people are scared of it because of it's bad medicine. If one deals with it, it will curse the individual. I wrote a short paper when I was at Northern Arizona University about how the shape-shifters exist in our everyday lives. From that school project, I started painting the shape-shifters. I view it as a positive energy instead of evil and negative energy. Lastly, I believe the power is still out there. IT IS AVAILABLE.
