Locke offers a different take on traditional ledger art by using vintage sheet music to demonstrate the divide between Native and white culture. Mr. Locke tells us that Native children in boarding schools often used sheet music or pages torn from hymnals to practice the painting and drawing taught to them by their parents.
A winyan with traditional dress and beautiful blanket is surrounded by dragonflies and buffalo.
