Alice Begay weaves a Pictorial Burnham style using very finely spun wool.

There are eagle feathers, water bugs and other symbols of rain that bless the scene. All hand spun wool in natural, vegetal and aniline dyed yarns that Alice has spun so finely to achieve the quality and detail that she is known for.
