I love to create art to ensure my ancestors' work is passed on to the next seven generations.

My favorite type of art to create is 18th century textiles, specifically feather capes.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from my family, nature and the world that I submerge myself in. I live on a 100 acre of deep woods, creeks and mountains and I feel that it heavily influences my work.
What would you do with $25,000?With the $25,000 I would build a proper studio for myself and family so that we would be able to teach others how to create our traditional Cherokee arts. I am a proud citizen of the Cherokee Nation and I want to share my talents with others. The $25,000 would allow me to do that at a better strategic point.
