Grandmother Doris 1926-1997 was Abenaki/Mohawk and beloved by the Abenaki community.
Although I never had the opportunity to meet Grandmother Doris, many have shared their stories with me
of her kind and caring nature and her deeply spiritual gifts.
the beaded portrait contains over 10,000 beads and took 65 hours to complete on a large beading loom.....the loom beaded portrait was then sewn onto a bag I made out of velvet......
