My festive day of solemn transition has arrived; Enkaibartani, the ritual healing, had just begun, when a man from another Maasai enkang came to my parents with gifts of heifers, a bullock, honey, tobacco, beer, and blankets. With these gifts, he requested that I be given to him in marriage. Now, on the day of my marriage to him, I am clothed in the most beautiful finery I have ever worn; I am full of both great joy and deep sadness. My new husband, who already has two wives, has given two rams and a ewe to my parents today, and a long day of glad dancing and singing has passed. My yeyíô and kokoô, with tears in their eyes, stand near the donkeys, adjusting my belongings on their backs. I know that a great part of my life lies ahead, but leaving my family for my husband's enkang is a sad time. - 11914

Maasai bio
As a self-taught artist Stacy Bayne's journey into the art world began in her early 20's. As a model Stacy lived in 5 foreign countries over the next 7 years where she spent every spare weekend in museums around the world. "This allowed me to experience and 'absorb' some of the Greatest Masterworks in History." Fast forward ten years and now a mother of three young children Stacy discovered the world of sculpture. In 1997 "The Maasai Collection" created by Stacy Bayne was released with overwhelming success and was sold in many countries around the world. Today Stacy is proud to introduce her newest work 'Village Life'. The elegant and sophisticated lines of these fine art sculptures are created to celebrate the diversity of culture and village life the world over. The heartbeat of every village lies in each member, for their very existence and that of the community. "Art creates an impact all it's own and is seen differently thru the eyes of those whom see it. I hope that thru my art I am able to honor and celebrate all cultures with dignity and grace and to do my small part to help preserve them. My passion behind my work is to have some effect, no matter how small, to imprint their footsteps into the hearts and minds of others."
