I paint the land from the Anishinaabe perspective that we are all one.
I camp on the land and listen to what She tells me. Then I come back to the studio and paint her stories.
Each painting becomes an object infused with nature’s messages.

Memories of plunging my hand deep into the very cold peat to uncover Iron Age wooden planks last seen over 2,000 years ago.
In 1986, I started work on my first archaeology dig at Corlea 1, dated to 148/147 BC. I didn’t know then it would be some of the most spectacular archaeology of my career.

And here's a photo of Bug where you can see his sweet, smiling face. He really is a special little guy and just wants some humans who can give him walks and love and lots of sofa time. He is a lovely little chap and I wish I could have him myself.

Good morning, Bluesky. Misty here in the Scottish Highlands today.
Today’s #photooftheday is a favourite walking spot. There’s always something beautiful to see and I always stop at this minor waterfall - just look at that moss 😍 Caught a rainbow that day too. Have a great day.
