Delightful paintings

Patricia Wyatt's paintings of Native American Medicine Women are delightful. They seem to come alive off the page.These women are powerful yet sensitive, showing a deep understanding of the world and their place in it. They are an inspiration to all women who are teacher, healer, nurturer and artist.Susan Freilicher's verses capture the essence of each painting. Drawing on the wisdom of many cultures they demonstrate the qualities of the medicine woman in all women.These paintings project great warmth with vibrant colors. There are wonderful costumes and many animals, birds and fish are included in the paintings. Printed one to a page, they would look great framed.
