  1. Commission for a family friend. The colour palette was a challenge: purple on green. I think I pulled it off, though the medium did not quite allow me to do as vibrant a purple as I maybe could have, to further the challenge. With paint or paint pens, I think I could do better these days.

  3. Arthur Shilling (1941-1986)

    Born on the Rama Reserve, near Orillia, Ontario into an Ojibwa family of thirteen children, Shilling started drawing as a small child and later carved wooden totem poles. Using oil on canvas, he depicted life on the Rama Reserve, where, eventually he built an art gallery to encourage local talent

    His life is documented in the film The Beauty of My People (1978).
