Four Directions, Artist Mike Daniel is an enrolled member of the Seminole Nation and also has Muscogee and Cherokee ancestry. He honors his heritage by incorporating motifs from all three tribes into his work. Daniel fires his work at 2300 degrees, making it rock hard; it is appropriately named stoneware. He holds a bachelor of arts degree from Northeastern Oklahoma State University in Tahlequah and his work has garnered high praise for a number of years. Four Directions was purchased for the Oklahoma Judicial Center Collection.
