This was a piece I started 7 years ago.. It was originally a Mountain Man and his Blackfoot wife coming down a mountain... The Photo on my Title page is me working on the two horses All Those years ago. I lost the vision for it.. so I set the wax aside for all those years.. then a couple of years ago.. I took the mountain man off the front horse and the woman off the back horse.. put the horses on a flat ground and I saw immediately the story... Native Americans had to weather the same storms modern man does. This clay, is of two Southern Cheyenne Warriors, who've been hit by a sudden and powerful gust of wind. It's knocked their horses off balance and has partially spooked them. The warrior on the back of his horse is attempting to control his horse, while the warrior on the ground is attempting to mount his. Looking back in the direction of the wind, the warrior on the ground sees the dark funnel touching the ground. They're left naked to the dangers of the Tornado on the flat open prairie.
