Our family just really loves Canadian indigenous art. It's very under appreciated and we love being surrounded by it. We have 2 small children who we teach about the art and history and we share our art with our local community so that people know the history of our indigenous peoples. This piece you have is was done during a period of time that he was struggling with addiction and you can see the pain he was feeling in the piece. As someone who has also struggled it speaks to me. You may not be interested in selling it at all but if you do and if you'd like it to go to a good home you can contact me.
When you mentioned his addiction in connection with the piece, I immediately saw what you saw... the struggle, the pain and the feeling of being consumed by those flames. The painting is a cry. Thank you for the enlightenment. If I sell it, it would be to someone who would cherish it as I have for over 35 years. I will give it some thought. Best wishes for the new Year.
Hahaha! Thank you. I'm well and I hope you are staying safe. I admire your persistence. My partner and I abandoned this blog a year ago. I come back once in a while to look up recipes. I won't sell right now but in about a year, I will have to start sizing down. Ask me then....Good luck Canuck
Hello again. I thought about your painting today and it reminded me that I hadn't messaged in quite awhile. I hope you are well. If you are interested in parting with your painting I would be happy to show it a good home. Canuck
Hello Anonymous. I will contact you in this venue when I decide to sell. Even though all my blogs are no longer active, I still check on them from time to time.
Please let me know what has happened to you Nee. I am worried sick about you. I am so confused by your absence.
