Yesterday I was able to deliver a just finished creation to the Onöhsagwë:de’ Cultural Center-Seneca Iroquois National Museum In beautiful Seneca Nation Territory, NY. It was a huge honor to be asked to create a work for their permanent collection where it will be shown and hopefully enjoyed for generations to come. My piece “Remembering Ancestors” a pictorial beaded tobacco bag pays homage to our Seneca Chief Cornplanter, whom I descend from. It also was made in mind to remember our many ancestors before us, and after us, as one day we will be the ancestors. I hope my work lives on to show who we are and will remain to be. I know my late father smiles down from the clouds knowing that my work will live long on in his Seneca area. ☁️💚💜❤️
Peeeeeks at the current piece on my work table. Should be done in the next week or so…plugging away. Will be revealed when it’s in its new space, maybe soon..maybe later. (Not for sale) Stay tuned😉
Sneek peeks at sections of a larger work in progress. Been off and on this piece for almost a year now and still working away. Hopefully will have it complete in the next month or so. Slow going but it’s going to be incredible, I’m so excited! Can anyone guess what the theme is or who it’s about? A few of you know but don’t spoil for the rest 😊
Happy Indigenous Peoples day! Our ancestors were here and we are still here. Celebrate proudly every day! Sharing some oldies of my work and a pic of yours truly from thee past 😊🪶
