Antelope Mask


This delicate watercolor/Chinese ink drawing from 1997 was used for the cover of an anthology of Native American Poetry in Dutch translation Met rode Ink, which was published in 2006 by publisher Ampersand & Tilde. The drawing's name is Antelope Mask. Tony made the drawing after a trip to Hopi, not to imitate the real mask, that would be disrespectful, but honoring the traditions and intentions of the Hopi. He cared deeply about all things Indian.
