These charming Navajo sandpaintings are crafted during the one day/night ceremony called 'The Hail Way Chant.'
The painting depicts an intricate sun symbol surrounded by feathers. The four colors displayed in the feathers represent the four winds. Four rainbow bars surrounding the painting are to bless the owner with protective energies. A story on the back of the piece explains the intricate symbolism in detail.
These handsome creations are the work of Tina and Robert Steven, full-blooded Navajos of the Corn Fields, Arizona area. They incorporate the teachings of Robert's grandfather, a Navajo medicine man, when designing these beautiful works. Traditional methods, including pulverizing local stone to create the rich colors are used in each painting.
