Its a clear, frosty Saturday morning in December and the air is tingling with excitement. The sidewalks are lined with rosy-cheeked children and their families, all eagerly waiting for the celebration to start. Before long, the beginning of the procession can be seen coming down the street. Fancily clad majorettes lead the way, followed by the uniformed marching bands and the brightly decorated floats. As the festivities continue, the children strain to see, further down the way, a Palomino pony adorned with Christmas wreaths, boots, ribbons, candy canes and holly – and a warm, woolen scarf around his neck – escorting the guest of honor: Santa Claus!Title: Christmas ParadeArtist: Devon ArcherMedium: ResinMeasures: 7

On a barren, windswept hill in eastern Montana there stands a tall obelisk inscribed with the names of the 268 men of the 7th Cavalry who lost their lives on June 26, 1876, in the Battle of Little Bighorn. Custers Last Stand is remembered by most Americans as a shocking defeat for the United States 7th Cavalry. However, for Native Americans, it is remembered as the last chapter in the Native American struggle to preserve and defend their homeland and traditional way of life. There has been no equivalent memorial for Native Americans heroic sacrifice, until now. This gives War Cry its power and poignancy.Title: War CryArtist: Vickie Knepper-AdrianMedium: ResinMeasures: 8¼
