The focus is on the $190 Quill Hairties, but I got distracted. #HeyBoo

This quillwork set was made by Ista Ska, a collective of Lakota quillwork and beadwork artists based out of Saskatchewan and North Dakota. They create authentic Lakota-made quillwork accessories, parfleche and beaded outfits for Native American powwow regalia.

Daryl Begaye is a Navajo/Tiwa artist, whose creations are an eclectic mix of paintings, ceramics, and sculptures. As a recent graduate of Fort Lewis College, Daryl is at the beginning of his career and learning that pursuing your passion is not always an easy road to travel. I was able to sit down and talk with Daryl about his art, the challenges he faces and what he hopes to accomplish as an artist. Here’s what he had to say: http://nativemax.com/the-pursuit-of-art-an-interview-with-daryl-begaye/
