In "I Am My Mother’s Daughter" by Karen Clarkson, a young Indigenous girl stands confidently with a smirk, one hand resting on the brim of a dark, wide-brimmed hat. She wears a short-sleeved yellow shirt with visible external stitching and metal beads outlining the collar, adding an intricate detail to her outfit.
Her other hand rests on a wooden post, highlighting her beautiful turquoise and white jewelry. Long, dangling earrings graze her collarbones, complemented by a long necklace. Her hair is styled into two thick braids, the rich dark color contrasting strikingly with her vibrant yellow shirt, showcasing her heritage and spirit.
