Description/Inspiration:

This jean jacket is size youth small (4-6) and the brand is Arizona Jean Company. This jacket features embroidered butterflies on the front and back of the jacket as well as different colored rhinestones. It has pink crystal buttons with matching beadwork designs done by me. I named this piece "Kamama" beacuse it means butterfly in my Cherokee language.

Artist Bio/Statement:

I am a mother of two and i live in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. I moved to Oklahoma from Kansas to be closer to my heritage and teach my children our culture. In reconnecting with my traditions, i have taken up beading as a hobby. I have really enjoyed creating beautiful pieces that have been gifted to family and friends or purchased and enjoyed by my supporters. I put my love and good intentions into every piece i create and hope to share the happiness with those who receive my artwork.
