"Tsianina Redfeather Blackstone" - Signed prints of artwork by Dakota Daetwiler

This piece was painted by Dakota in 2014 as a commission from her father. It depicts Dakota's ancestor Tsianina Redfeather Blackstone, who her entire family is incredibly proud to be related to. Here is a bit about Tsianina and her history:

Tsianina Redfeather Blackstone (December 13, 1882 – January 10, 1985) was a Muscogee singer, performer, and Native American activist, born in Eufaula, Oklahoma, then within the Muscogee Nation. She was born to Cherokee and Creek parents and stood out from her 9 siblings musically. From 1908 she toured regularly with Charles Wakefield Cadman, a composer and pianist who gave lectures about Native American music that were accompanied by his compositions and her singing. They toured in the United States and Europe.
Tsianina Redfeather was born Florence Tsianina Evans at Eufaula, Muscogee Nation, in indigenous territory (now Oklahoma), to Muscogee parents. Her ancestors were forced from their homeland in the Southeast United States and forced to march on the trail of tears. All nine of Tsianina's siblings had musical talent, but she was the best. She began training at the age of 14 in Denver, Colorado, sponsored in part by Alice Robertson. She had earned scholarships in Denver and New York City.
