Rosie Yellowhair, Navajo, began sandpainting in 1983 and has taken the art to spectacular heights. Yellowhair collects and grinds her own sand ranging from soft pastels to the more traditional earth tones. It takes her six months to complete a large sandpainting due to the intricate designs she incorporates in each piece. This strong dedication to quality and workmanship has become her trademark. This magnificent sandpainting measures 27.5 inches by 27.5 inches.
