2025 Creation Mask. Using this ads to rough out the Creation mask that is about honoring the moment life begins. I love creating art pieces every month and sharing the world around me.
One morning I sent my sister a message that said “when we were four and six did we really braid a bunch of headbands and then go sell them in town or was it a dream”? She responded with yes we really did do that!!! I think being an artist has always been part of who I am. It runs through my blood and has to be shared with the world. I sold my first piece when I was four and my second piece when I was 14.
I’ve been carving ever since I can remember. My mom and dad used to let us help when they were working on their art pieces. It started with sanding the pieces until we knew how to sand all kinds of wood to get a nice smooth finish.
In 2013 adventures to see art works that have impacted art as we know it today. Jordan is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
I was 12 when my great Aunty Irene taught me how to bead earrings. Most of my life has been about creating art and learning how to share my view of the world.
I also took a repousse and chasing course, and later I look a course to learn how to set stones, make a bezel setting, bracelets and much more.
Here is a photo of me carving the edge of a yellow cedar panel that I carved in collaboration with my mom Jane Marston and sister Karen Marston. This panel had four salmon and water depicted on it.
There are only a few political art pieces that I have done as I tend to focus on healing and the beauty that surrounds me. While I was learning about the history of colonization I found the injustices, the suppression and chemical warfare over whelming. Art is how I process and share all facets of life.
When I was 14 or 15 I was asked to paint a silk scarf for a mothers day gift. This was my first commission and although I didn’t make a huge profit the experience forever informed how I create and sell works.
From the first images that I see in nature and can take a reference photo of and then play with the design, colors, and aesthetic My pieces are inspired by the world around me.
