This painting shows a small village in the background, in the foreground a tipi-pole travois behind horse preparing to be loaded for moving camp.

The Ace Powell Award, named in Powell's honor as the award's first recipient, is given by the Western Art Association of Ellensburg, Washington, to an artist who has made a significant contribution toward historical western art heritage or who has encouraged or supported western artists in an outstanding manner. Powell signed nearly all of his works with this mark showing an ace of diamonds playing card and "Powell".

Visible art measures 3"W x 7.75"L, frame is 14"W x 17"L x 1.25"D
