In the past this gives them the status symbol.This piece shows the Reality of living in the interior, tough, experienced and signs of a life living in a great clean environment among the clouds.www.diancraft.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08672427553820700285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-42076577942581839.post-30108515430871407932011-03-10T22:08:32.626+08:002011-03-10T22:08:32.626+08:00Nice work Daf.Nice work Daf.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12449778996550356337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-42076577942581839.post-18961438866236560022011-03-08T11:15:29.942+08:002011-03-08T11:15:29.942+08:00Thank you Maltilder for this comment and I would h...Thank you Maltilder for this comment and I would hope the right people take note of your suggestion otherwise if I sell this work it could very well leave the country.dafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18138751771929595607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-42076577942581839.post-36717749890681621842011-03-07T22:13:04.304+08:002011-03-07T22:13:04.304+08:00I belong to the Iban community with my roots in Su...I belong to the Iban community with my roots in Sungai Lukut,Kanowit.The Dayaks,the tribal population of Sarawak,Malaysia Borneo comprises mainly the Orang Ulus,Bidayuhs and Ibans.The Kelabit Man should be the pride of the Artist who did such true likeness It would be nice to see that it is archived as a historical artifact for the younger generations........
