THE COUP ROBE
14"H x 11"W x 13"D

Every culture from Egyptian, Native American,

    to the modern businessman has accomplishments

    joys and sorrows, battles won or lost, which

    remain etched across their minds.  These stories

    have been painted throughout the world on caves,

    temples, teepees, animal hides and woven on

    fabrics from time-immemorial.  In this sculpture

    Bill is telling the story of one Native American

    who is painting another image on a buffalo robe

    that tells of his latest victory in battle against an

    enemy.  The greatest proof of his courage was not

    to kill his enemy, but to get close enough to touch

    that adversary and not be killed himself.  These

    stroies of his "coup" will be told again and again

    which will extend his legacy the memory of his

    life to grandchildren generations after him.
