Wow! Welcome to my blog, Indigenous Eye. I'm just getting back on line after being without power for several days due to an ice storm here in eastern Oklahoma. Thanks to blogger.com for allowing me to set up on this great site! And thanks to Dana Tiger for giving me the idea to set up my new blog here. If you haven't seen it already, check out Dana's new Obama print, honoring our new president; it's beautiful. See it at danatigerart.blogspot.com. or e-mail her to purchase one at danatiger@hotmail.com.
I'm just getting started so check back soon for news on Indigenous issues, culture, art and more.
