“Totemic Mosaic #001” is part of the group exhibit opening November 1st at the Quintana Gallery in Portland, Oregon. Other artists include Alano Edzerza, Shaun Peterson, Paul Rowley and LessLIE Sam.

“Quintana Gallery celebrates its 40th anniversary with a year-long series of exhibitions that honor its past, present and future.  The last in this series is a group show of the next generation of artists who are carrying native art forward with contemporary eyes and firm roots in tradition.”  These images in this blog entry are a few pieces created for this show.

“Totemic Mosaic #004” — I have made about 5 (maybe 6? – hard to recall) of these “mosaics” since this Summer. They are on hand-built curved canvasses. They are fun to create.

“Totemic Mosaic #005” – this photo gives a little bit of perspective on the curved canvas theme.
