MSIT NO'KMAQ/ALL MY RELATIONS

I cordially invite you to join me for my artshow and Charlie Girl's not going!!! I have paintings and stainedglass pieces incorporating my family's history as Mi'kmaq Artists. Msit No'kmaq All My Relations 🦅🦅🦅
Pauline is a visual artist who draws her inspiration from the natural environment and is always looking down to see what the ground can offer, such as incorporating beach sand and red oxide sand into her paintings.
Art is a tradition passed down from generation to generation its part of my blood and my heritage. My first memory is of my father painting the bottoms of my feet with yellow paint and I can feel the paint oozing through my toes.
My personal and emotional spiritual journey as a Mi’kmaq woman is portrayed in my art. Legends from Elders, the local Miramichi tales. The history becomes important to me, to imagine what it was like living back then, giving me a connection to the stories passed down to us.
I work in charcoal, oil and acrylic, depending on what the inspiration needs. I have used barbwire, beach sand and other objects in my pieces. I prefer the ease of acrylics but am not limited to them. I am working many of my pieces into stained glass, a new medium for me. Colored glass changes with the light a little every day and that’s what I love about it.
