Strawberry Story: Yurok Healing Rites
This Friday I thought I wouldn't go as literal with the Strawberry Friday posting. I wanted to share two cards mom had in her inspiration stash.
The painting and calligraphy are done by Renee Locks with a copyright of 1991 (please don't sue me) and printed by The Brush Dance. The back of the cards explains the name:
The Brush Dance was a Yurok Indian healing ritual where being true to yourself meant giving your best to help a person in need. Being true to yourself was the one and only Yurok Indian law.
The art fits right in with mom's asthetic, which leaned toward purples and batiks. Enjoy!
