Background
T'ansi! Welcome to my homepage. My name is Catherine. I am 26 years old, of Métis (Cree/French Canadian) descent from Ontario, Canada. I am a Graphic Designer and Illustrator and graduated in 2003 from the Graphic Design & Advertising Program at Conestoga College. I am an artist who enjoys working in many mediums. Please come in and have a look around at some of my work here. You will find links to my different styles of work near the bottom of the page.
Work
Below is some beadwork that I did on a pipe bag that I made. It is done in a classic Ojibwe style.
Below is one of the unique dreamcatchers that I make. The hoop support is brass instead of wood, but the rest is made of buckskin and waxed cotton cord accented with cowrie shells and paint.
Below is the lid of a soapstone jar that I painted with a loon, reflecting a cross between Swampy Cree and Ojibwe styles.
Contact Me
I am open to doing work on comission for anyone who would like work done on regalia,
or anyone who would like crafts or other artwork. Select the Email link on this page to contact me. I will do work either for cash or trade of items such as hides, furs, feathers, sweetgrass, sage, cedar, tobacco, etc.

A small buffalo shield. Sterling silver and wood beads, buckskin, buffalo hide, rabbit fur, silver concho and goose feathers. The hoop support is steel. I was inspired to do this after reading the legend of White Buffalo Calf Woman, a Lakota legend. You can read it
