Giant among trees, small to whispering leaves.

From a young age I have always had a keen interest in the arts, essentially my surroundings were the beautifully painted landscapes of the creator himself. I had a great privilege too be born into an ancient culture which is slowly making its way back into mind and hearts of our beautiful Anishnaabeg people, the original inhabitants of turtle island! As we know aboriginals of North America and all over the world have survived quite the battle in the last 400 years. Our spiritual ways were almost eradicated yet retained their stability despite the oppressive acts of religious institutions and power mad groups of individuals. The arts are what define a society in my opinion and I feel truly blessed to be from such a spiritual and immersive culture as my own. The powerful images depicted in Woodland developed by the late great Norval Morriseau are my direct influence, along with a bunch of local artists from my area and friends from over the years. I thank you for taking the time too view and appreciate the images and dreams that come too me or are shared with me. Chi Miigwetch Niiwin Binesi Four Birds Brent Hardisty.....

Graffiti/Muralism

At the age of 15 is when I first picked up a can of spray paint and attempted to write my name on a wall. That was 12 years ago, since then I have successfully transferred my skills from years of practise with spray paint into a mural craft. I have worked with numerous types of businesses and organizations over the past 7 years or so. First hand designing and creating large scale murals for a huge variety of businesses and private property owners. Ask about what kind of mural you would like and I will ease you through the whole decisive process. 

Woodland Style Painting

Since I was a young child I have witnessed a wide array of beautifully painted woodland style paintings from a number of local artists. This style of painting always intimidated me in my youth and teenage years, mainly due too my obsession with graffiti and other city oriented activities. Recently being back home in my community I have a better more mature feeling towards the art form now. I am very pleased with this new direction.

Building Connections In The Art Communties

​As of recent I have been really attempting too promote my work and also work with new artists and build long lasting relations. I feel that is is very important, we as artist's need too continue too build together. If you curious about work please feel free too send me an email.
