Since those early days Maxine has mastered the skills of painting and drawing plus the processes of serigraphy, etching and stone lithography. Recently she has turned her talents to the creation of editions in cast paper and limited edition bronze castings. Maxine Noel signs her artwork with her Sioux name IOYAN MANI, which translates as “Walk Beyond”.
