Art is not a thing; it is a way.
Elbert Hubbard

Art is part of the fabric of Native American culture and history. The Sheena V Foundation is committed to supporting the artists that continue that tradition today. We find, cultivate, and feature, individuals who embody the artistic spirit.

When I shut my eyes and asked, I got the name right then….”Tears For My People”   To view additional pieces of art from Sharon McConnell  www.sharonmcconnellart.com
