This watercolor painting deals with the Cherokee tragedy now called the Trail
of Tears. During the winter of 1838 and 1839 sixteen thousand Cherokees were forced on to
what would be the Trail of Tears overland to what is now Oklahoma. The owl is the
messenger of death, on the trail of tears over 4,000 Cherokees died. Through the strength
and determination of the Cherokee People a new Cherokee Nation was carved out of that
early Oklahoma wilderness.
