"my art is strongly influenced by the traditional ways of my people. i was brought up to live off the land from an early age. hunting and trapping, living in harmony with the the earth has taught me to respect the animals and the spirit and power of nature. i hoop dance and sing at Pow Wows to maintain my cultural heritage. through art and dancing I attempt to influence native people to continue their cultural ways; the gift that was given to us by the great spirit." isaac died at the peak of his career, at the age of 37, but his art remains his legacy.the size of this acrylic on board 13 1/2"x19 1/2"signed by the artist
