Indian Reservation

 A CLOSER LOOK...
I love  Sylvia Zett images and this one is no exception. I was happy to find some time to color this one up. I seem to be struggling with hair again. Just when I think I have it down then I mess up like I did on this image....grrr! Someday I am going to take a hair coloring class...don't know where but I just know I will find one! LOL. I am going to have another go at this one and see if I can get the hang of it yet!  
I am entering this card at the following challenges:
My song:
They took the whole Cherokee nation
Put us on this reservation
Took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the bow and knife
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan
Cherokee people, Cherokee tribe
So proud to live, so proud to die

Black hair is hard to do so don't be too hard on yourself, I can't do fur but yours looks great! Maybe we can trade, I will color your hair, you can do my fur images!
