Suddenly all my ancestors are behind me. “Be still” they say. “Watch and listen.” The stories, folktales and myths woven into the thread of our oral traditions have always found a place in the artwork of these two artists, Lisa Aerianna Tayerle and Andrea McCluskey. Each artist brings her voice to the sometimes dark and ancient words passed from generation to generation.
