Julian Martinez Painting - C3874QMany of Julian Martinez's paintings feature pueblo dancers, dance scenes, or animals, but this one documents a teaching experience.  A father is teaching his son the ways of war or the way to be a warrior.  Both father and son are on horseback, riding bareback, with proper warrior head bonnets, spears, and clothing.  The younger one is on the left with his spear raised.  The young man's face expresses fear or anger and the father's face expresses calm.
