About Ol-Murrani - Fearless Sentinel
What a proud and honoured time this is in my life as a Maasai! I must be many things for the tribe - protector of the tribe, protector of the herds, and with my spear always at my side, I must be strong, clever, courageous, confident, wise, and gentle.I am the inspiration to the ol-ay n , the admiration of the en-t to, pride of my yey , the reminder of grand youth to the ol-ak y . I remember well the days of olaibartani which followed my initiation, how I waited impatiently for the days to pass to the eunoto ceremony, the time when my head and eyebrows were shaved, and I could finally and proudly throw my bird head-dress amongst the cattle to be trampled. Now, with my hair long and beautifully braided, I, with the other warriors, am respected and needed by my tribe. I am also loved by the en-t tos, who sing for me, who love me, as I love them.

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."
