THE VISION PAINTER
Greetings,
Elder Sa'ke'J Muise has many talents.......being a professional artist is just one of them.
The ELDER says that he paints mostly during the Winter.
His work sells very quickly, once completed.
Each of his artistic works is the manifestation of a VISION.
First comes the VISION, then the painting.
Most of the world's greatest artists speak of embracing the same creative process......VISION...then.... PAINTING !
Many paintings done by the Elder can be seen below.
Some have been completed on birch rind.
The ELDER speaks of his work:
"Wela'lin ":
"O kji niskam ,( O. Great Spirit ) has many gifts, and there are Many Teachings within that painting".
"That is where my Journey began ,with a Mi'kmaq woodland Pipe ,and a two sided drum, made by an Elder and when I was Chief in the St. George's band. He presented the sacred object to me in 1989 and I still carry then with me at times".
"The woodland pipe I passed it on to other people and the pipe still came back to me. I only use it for teaching in the day school system".
"It is very important to know the different kinds of pipes that women or men carry for different reasons. Some times it is only between you and the Creator and still there is understanding and knowledge you can share with others ".
In the past Mi'kmaq people often painted on birch rind using natural paints made from roots and plants."
These painting done by SA'KE'J are artistic manifestations following Vision Quests.
Many are for sale.
Please contact the ELDER.
