Sr. Preserving the Long Walk toward
Sovereignty   A member of the Reed clan, Baje

for his colorful landscapes depicting the Navajo
Reservation as well as portraits of his people.
He has developed his own technique for painting
in a watercolor style using acrylic paint. His
finely detailed paintings are alive with bold

skies, hogans and ramadas. Whitethorne often
