Oil on canvas

The painting depicts two important advocates for the Nevada City Rancheria, Belle Douglas and Shelly Covert...though separated by a century both provide support and action for the betterment of the Nisenan people. Images of Tribe members, California condor and the foothills are also represented. The work is meant to elicit a feeling of safety among the people, animals and homeland while paying well deserved homage to advocates.
