Two-Spirit based art I made recently. I call these 'True form Two-Spirit male" and "True form Agokwe".

since brown is just orange with context (and my brain sucks at colour differentiation) it makes it really hard to make a fist with the philly pride plus trans pride colours
would love y'alls opinions, especially if you can see colour well 😅

[Before framing]. I call this one "The Snake of Mackinac"

[Executive Traveller] Qantas reveals its most Instagrammable plane ever
By David Flynn
"Around 100 painters were involved in completing the livery, working with 130 stencils to replicate a detailed design by Pitjantjatjara artist Maringka Baker which tells the Dreaming story of two sisters who traverse remote Australia together, covering vast distances to find their way home."
...
"In the tradition of the Qantas Flying Art series, the aircraft itself is named for the artwork Minyma Kutjara Tjukurpa (literally ‘the two sisters creation story’), although all subsequent A220s will be named after native Australian wildlife."
I like and appreciate this way more than Condor's fugly jail stripes. Sorrynotsorry. UnpopularOpinion.

In addition to writing my next novel, I'm co-facilitating two exciting projects at the moment, and can't wait for them all to be published.
One is an anthology of Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander poetry and short stories, to be published by Wakefield Press.
And the other is a poetry and nonfiction collection of Aboriginal writers responding to works exhibited/performed as part of Tarnanthi 2023.
(annual festival of contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art
Program here > https://www.agsa.sa.gov.au/whats-on/tarnanthi/tarnanthi-2023/across-city-state/
A smattering of traditional dance by Bear Forest Dancers and Mountain Cree Drummers.
(Please forgive the less than descriptive alt texts, the regalia is very detailed and in my whiteness I couldn't do justice describing it let alone ensure I'm using the right terminology)
These two pieces stood out for me because of course they do.
Both are by Bernadette Newmann.

Privileged to have been invited to Peace Hills Trust's 40th annual Indigenous Art Show here in #yeg / #Treaty6.
Amazing talent on display, and a great opportunity for the artists to not just showcase but also sell their art.
My budget is pretty modest but there's a couple of smaller pieces I have my eye on.

You are really helping!
In years the only time I have seen scams it was non-Natives or non-Native orgs acting like they were Native or associated with Native Nations or reservations. It was never Native Indigenous people scamming.
For the latest episode of my podcast for @Flipboard, I interviewed Philbrook Assistant Curator of Native Art Kalyn Fay Barnoski.
Kalyn opines about #art, #creativity and #curation from an #Indigenous perspective, including so many wonderful artists to check out.
This Storyboard has the episode plus links to everything and everyone Kalyn recommended.
The best possible #IndigenousMutualAid you can practice is to buy genuine Native/Indigenous Beadwork, Art, Jewelry, Books etc. direct from the artist/creative regularly.
Not only are you helping people survive immediately, but you are helping their future and getting great creative works!

My wife and I recently read Firekeeper's Daughter & Warrior Girl Unearthed by Indigenous author Angelline Boulley and loved the learning & listening process through the novels.

Wari artist, Peru
#Feline Bottle
600-900CE
Ceramic, slip
on display @ the Met
“Coastal artists developed a hybrid style, combining imperial Wari iconography w/ local pottery traditions. This bottle features a modeled feline head, characteristic of the highlands, w/ the colorful slip style developed on the coast by earlier Nasca potters. Painted on the flask-like body of the vessel, the feline's claws grasp another animal, perhaps a reference to imperial reach & power.”

1100-1470 CE
Ceramic
on display at the Met
“Grey-black ceramics became the signature ware of the Chimú. Even though this stirrup-spout bottle was created some 2,000 years after the earliest Cupisnique vessels, its feline shape attests to the enduring traditions in ancient Peruvian ceramics.”
