About Me

My photo
Finished my bachelors degree in Art Practices August of 2012 and a masters degree in Educational Leadership and Policy with a specialization in Post Secondary Adult and Continuing Education in 2014. Professionally I'm interested in creating culturally responsive curriculum for Native American/Alaska Native youth and adults in formal and non-formal learning environments. I love the intersection of art, learning/teaching, and Indigenous cultures and ways of knowing. In my creative process I'm interested in using iconic Native American images or objects in different ways to illustrate political or historical themes, truths (as I see them), and experiences. I also love to use different art mediums to capture the people and world around me. I enjoy making art with friends and giving away art is a way for me to show my love and gratitude to others.

Art: Drawings 2014-2016



Grandma Medicine Woman's Dress
A design inspired by my great-great grandmother's traditional wedding dress

Tradition
This image is an abstraction of teepee if you would see them from above like a bird. Teepee is traditionally taken care of by the women and that includes putting them up and taking them down and taking care of everything in them. The teepee belonged to the women and it symbolizes the universe.

Colonization
This is all about the loss of culture from genocide and colonization.
