🔥 Gathering of the Wise

Original Painting by Chief — $75

Beneath a vast twilight sky, a small group gathers around a glowing fire in a quiet clearing. Trees rise protectively around them as the land opens wide, holding the moment in stillness. The fire burns warm and steady, illuminating faces, feathers, and offerings laid gently at the circle’s edge.

This painting captures a sacred moment of togetherness — where stories are shared, wisdom is passed, and the presence of the Old Ones is felt close. The surrounding landscape feels alive and watchful, as if the earth itself is listening. Chief’s layered brushwork creates depth and warmth, drawing the viewer into the circle as a silent witness.

A powerful piece for those drawn to community, ancestral memory, and the healing that comes from shared connection.
