Text on back of card:
“Having a Ball.... Balance”
This is about Motherhood vs. the Mother's talents and job. This mother is throwing her children in the air, having a Ball. She is enjoying them whole heartedly. However, her dress is very heavy with the burdens (and joys) of the rest of her life. The dress is trying hard to pull her away from her children, and yet it is such an important part of her life and personality. The “Woman's Life Dance” series is a celebration of women. They are multi-ethnic and athletic instead of sensual in their physique (to avoid judgement based on body type). They wear crowns of their greatest joys and influences in their lives (i.e. children, mates, passions and parents). Their dresses tell their life story in people, places and inspirations. The cowboy boots are joyful, to give a bounce in their step as they travel through life. All have mittens woven throughout their dresses, because every woman has helping hands.

They wear crowns of their greatest joys and influences in their lives (i.e. children, mates, passions) and are loosely based on Yupik masks. Their dresses tell their life story and the cowboy boots are joyful, to give a bounce in their step as they travel through life. They all wear mittens, because the artist is proudly Alaskan!
