Warcloud is an Ambassador for all Nations, and he is from the Colville Confederated Tribes of North Central Washington. Warcloud proudly makes all of his regalia, from his cougar headdress adorned with eagle feathers and ermine pelts, to his powerful eagle staff that he carries and uses in dance. He is also adorned with a bustle, a traditional part of a man's dance regalia. Warcloud has been a great influence in my life. He is a long-time friend and has been the subject of many of my paintings. His powerful presence has helped me make a strong statement in the art world. I owe Warcloud a huge gratitude of thanks for supporting my career and “Lifting the Sky" for me!
