Size; 15 x 17"

This image began as a book cover about the history of AIM, the American Indian Movement. It features the great Dakota Chief Sitting Bull, who stood up for the rights of his people in the 1800’s. He exemplifies a Native American chief standing up for his people. The photograph is vintage and the design style is inspired by the plains Native American design style.

In addition to traditional Kwakiutl designs, David has created Contemporary Indigenous prints that represent the issues and history of our time. He believes that Northwest Native American traditional art is a foundation to build upon, not a boundary to restrain creativity..
