The Dragonfly companions who are etched into the shawl of a wonderful Zuni Mother, are drawn to a bowl filled with life-giving water, represented by the colorful turquoise acrylic paint. Children are at her feet, learning traditional knowledge that will carry them all their days. Hair is beautifully incised and peaceful facial features are given. Alan Lewis lovingly hand-carved and hand-painted, with cottonwood and bright acrylic paints, this approximately 12" tall, 2 5/8" wide and 2 1/4" deep extraordinary woodwork. Signed by the artist.
