Jane is currently working on a project involving the Tarahumara Indians of Mexico.  The Raumari  (or running people) as the Tarahumara Indians call themselves, are an ancient tribe who have inhabited the Copper Canyon of Mexico for many centuries.  In recent years drought conditions have been devastating to their population.  Over the last 3 years she has traveled to the Napuchi Valley home of the Allaya family outside of Creel, MX.  She has had the privilege of building relationships with the Tarahumara families of this valley.   These paintings and many more will be used in fundraising events.
