Try Native American Drums For Perfect Southwestern Decorating
they are used in not only music but art and dance as well. Adding decoration to a drum becomes a very personal task to the owner. The Indian drummer becomes an artist and communicates impressions of his inner feelings and beliefs in his Indian art. Some American Indian tribes use images of animals to decorate their drums and others use geometric patterns and everything in between. In some tribal Indian cultures the drummer will place something of personal value inside the drum to permanently join himself with his hand drum.
The different Native American pictures that the artwork on the drums depict is often painted with natural earth colors taken from nature. Some are dull and others are bright coming from plants, roots and herbs found in nature and in the drum makers natrual environment. Other Native American drums are decorated with iron oxide which is a naturally occurring red rock that can be easily crushed. When mixed with water, it produces a rich orange red dye that is much like paint and is associated with the natural red rocks found Arizona. The region of Sedona is thought to be a special place with spiritual power like the energy created by American Indian drums.
The desire behind the teachings of Native American Education has always involved the sharing of beliefs through music, songs, stories and legends. It is in connection with these methods of learning that the communication and cultural importance has been found in the use of drums. If you are interested in the spiritual aspects of life as pertain to Indian beliefs, you will love owning and playing Native American drums.
