June 17 2013 Raven
Been rendering new digital paint brushes in my studio.
Digital painting is still a new tool for me.
This is my old friend, Raven.
original: 32 x 25 inches 200 DPI
PS CS6 and Illustrator CS6.
Recovering from a bad cough,
canvas season will have to wait another season.

Title: Caribou Sunset.

@ouwaah
Since caribou is one of my favorite foods,
I thought of doing a digital project on caribou.
Design motifs are illustrated from caribou-skin coats worn by hunters.
Sunset is from Fort-George island by the Great river, Chasípích.

Computer Art: IIYIYIYU Article 14 FEB1 2013
iiyiyiuyimiu (she speaks Cree) |
Once upon a time,
at an event in MTL,
being slightly nervous,
I read this article out loud,
Spoken in the language** of my ancestors.
Amanda T. Sam, Title: IIYIYIYU Article 14 FEB1 2013 click on image for larger view. |
-
"Indigenous peoples have the right to establish and control their
educational systems and institutions providing education in their own
languages, in a manner appropriate to their cultural methods of
teaching and learning.
-
Indigenous individuals, particularly children, have the right to all
levels and forms of education of the State without discrimination.
-
States shall, in conjunction with indigenous peoples, take effective measures, in order for indigenous individuals, particularly children, including those living outside their communities, to have access, when possible, to an education in their own culture and provided in their own language."
- Article 14, United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
**I am very grateful for learning the language from my teachers, my late-grandparents Nancy & Ronnie. Everyday offers a better understanding on how to maintain language and its teachings...
