"Betty Elizabeth Bernice Oritha Marie Quiet-fawn Nashima River-banks Conklin Sisco"....... was the full name of one of my truest friends. She was a genuine daughter of the Deer clan, Tuscarora tribe, from the Iroqoui Nation. This portrait was painted in two parts, first as part of a beautiful mural I held as precious until destroyed by someone else's neglect, secondly as a finalized frame to send to all her living children. Even in her final days at the hospital... I always knew how to make her smile, (teeth or no teeth) lol. Betty, we miss you profoundly...*
