The dolls above are all based on actual Ghost Dance clothing I have seen in museums. The Ghost Dance religion was embraced by the Native Americans all over North America in the late 1800′s. The belief was that the buffalo and their way of way would be restored to them through the dance. The clothing worn was designed by each individual based on their personal dreams and visions. 
 Each doll is made of muslin, with deer hide and muslin clothing. The clothing is all hand painted with natural earth pigments. The hair is horse hair.

Beadwork — 5 Comments

  1. I’m so happy for you both and wish you continued inspiration and success!

    May I offer a name for the Native American sculpture?

    The name, “White Cloud” came to me instantly when I looked at it this morning. He has a larger than life presence with eyes that show strength, insight, wisdom and kindness. White Cloud is the most prominent of my six Native American Spirit guides and perhaps it was he, who whispered his name to me when I looked at the sculpture today.

    I feel such a connection to this piece and am most grateful and proud of the Native American in my bloodline. I thank Al for honoring these wonderful people with his sculptures and you, Mary for the beautiful beaded pieces you’ve created, as well as your excellent content on the website.

    Congratulations once again and may the “Great Spirit” continue blessing you all.

    In love and friendship,
    Susan Shane, Artisan
    Baltimore, MD
