Tirawa Shows Himself through the Beasts

Tirawa Shows Himself through the Beasts/30x40/ oil on canvas

"In the beginning of all things, wisdom and knowledge were with the animals, for Tirawa, the One Above, did not speak directly to man. He sent certain animals to tell men that he showed himself through the beast, and that from them, and from the stars, and the sun, and the moon should man learn... all things tell of Tirawa."—Eagle Chief Letakots-Lesa, Pawnee Tribe 

This quote was the inspiration for the painting that was showcased by CFA Gallery this past summer and continues to inspire. Paintings can be purchased on the Available Paintings page.
