I do all kinds of art, traditional with pencils and paper, painting, watercolor, digital. I also write music, and play guitar.
I’ve been making art for a long time now, ever since I was a child. I only started to really take it seriously though once I was in my early teens.
I feel as though a lot of my creative process is inspired by my own experiences. I’ve used art to work through grief, to create when I’m unable to express myself any other way. I find that it’s my most healthy outlet. I also tend to be inspired by the land, and media I enjoy
Our mission is to foster connection, opportunity, and knowledge-sharing for those who create (Oshichikesiwuk). In doing so, we empower the voices of Mushkegowuk Cree to express the sacred connection between our people, water, land, and all our relations.
We envision a future where the voices of Omushkegowuk creators (Oshichikesiwuk) are empowered and valued, ensuring a legacy of harmony between culture and sustainability that resonates through generations connected to the James Bay Coast (Nanipek).
