"I like to paint portraits of my people, to do my own vision of them. They are very proud people. They are not always sad, so when I paint them I can put a smile on their face and a twinkle in their eye. I can show the love I have for my people in my paintings." - Vee Ola Corso

#1305 - LITTLE ONE
From wherever my children
have built their shelters,
May their roads come in safety,
May the forest and the brush
Stretch out their water-filled arms
And shield their hearts.
May their roads come in safety,
May their roads be fulfilled.

#1309 - EASTLAND
In the beginning of the world all men
had knowledge cheerfully
All had leisure, all thoughts were pleasant
At that time all creatures were friends
Wide waters rushing, wide to the hills, everywhere
spreading Waters devouring men and
all creatures on the flood of the waters
All were peaceful long ago
Large and long was the East land, rich and good.
 - from the Walum-Olum,
Lenni Lenape (Delaware)

May the rain always

May Peace and contentment
dwell with you
And your children forever."

Running streams and dwellings,
The young within the nest,
A hearth for sacred fire,
the holy flame of fire."

The presence of the

Reminds us that we are all
children of Mother Earth.
She nurtures us

Walk upon her softly
with reverence and respect.

for all things share the same breath -
the beasts, the trees, the man."

#1319 - NATIVE AMERICA
Grandfather, we know
that in all creation
only the human family
has strayed from the
Sacred Way.
 We know that we are
the ones who are divided
and we are the ones
who must come back together
to walk the Sacred Way.
 - American Indian Prayer
