A painting of two faces, one a man and one a woman, facing left. The woman's face is in front of the man's and overlaps the back of his head. The man is wearing two feathers in his hair. These heads seem to float in space over a Plains Native American tipi. Their long hair flows downward and connects with the tipi. This painting was done on an orange mat board.
