Artist based on the prairies of North Dakota
Art is the only thing I have ever really wanted to do. Being an artist has been my dream from the very beginning. I have never wanted to get rich from my artwork. Instead, I want to be able to make enough to be able to give it away. I believe art brings people together. It heals, it brightens the world. Case Art isn't just another art store, it is my way of helping others through art.
William Clark's journal, February 21st, 1805.
" The medicine stone is the great oracle of the Mandans, and whatever it announces is believed with implicit confidence. Every spring, and on some occasion's during the summer, a deputstion visits the sacred spot where there is a thick porous stone 20' in circumference, with a smooth surface. Having reached the place the ceremony of smoking to it is performed by the deputies."
So many times sacred places are misunderstood. Disregarded. Defiled. Simply because we do not understand or are unwilling to learn the importance they hold. Today Medicine rock is surrounded in a chain link fence. You are no longer able to place prayer bundles or sage on its face. Simply because some could not respect. This piece is in remembrance of when it was un-fenced and still pristine.
Good Medicine is 20 x 16 inches on stretched canvas. It is signed on the from and comes with a certificate of authenticity. It is wired and ready to hang.
No matter where life takes me, I vow to never stop using my art to help others. The talents we are given are meant to be cultivated and to be used to improve the lives of our fellow humans. It is a greater gift to give of these talents than it is to use them simply for personal gain.
