Djodi'kwado, Seneca Horned Serpent: 48x60" inks and oil paint on canvas. I am exploring the nature of the transformations of evil in Haudenosaunee understandings. The horned serpent turns into a human figure to lure human beings into chaos and annihilation. I put one of our original medicines, sacred tobacco, at the bottom in front of him, as meditative collaborations with nature can offer much in response to the boundless mischief…

30×40” oil on canvas, framed for display. Strawberries are the traditional Haudenosaunee “heart berry” and a first medicine brought by Skywoman. They are said to line the path to heaven.

The Boy Who Overcame All Magic with Laughter
24×36 oil on canvas. Framed for display.
In the Seneca story collected by Arthur C. Parker, a boy named Gajihsondis grows up under a spell he cannot see. A demon of enchantment has scattered the people and bewitched the world; every wish is blocked and misery sits over everything. His grandfather keeps him hidden and warns him never to go near the spring, where a terrible creature waits.
When the boy finally walks the path, he meets the guardians one by one—a giant frog, a duck, a beaver, then a blue lizard that springs from the water and bites off his legs. Each time the magic rises against him, Gajihsondis does the one thing no one expected: he laughs. The laughter weakens the creatures until their power fails.
This was my son Fox in the stream in Amherst we used to go to—here, he is the boy, still innocent and playful, about to laugh and about to face the challenges of life, the old magic, in the form of the first evil being he meets, the frog, coiled in the dark behind him.
