The Guild Shopfine Canadian craft

Brian is an Ojibwe Native Canadian known for his colourful paintings symbolic of wildlife, natural phenomena, Indian culture, and human experience in general. His paintings, carvings and sculptures illuminate the conceptual reawakening of Ojibwe thought within the universal languages of colour and icon. Many of Brian’s paintings reflect his experiences early in life at his home in Mobert. As a child he spent many winters trapping with his parents and grandparents. Brian’s work is influenced by these formative years in the bush. His grandfather taught him about the land on which he lived. Brian is a self-taught painter, who has achieved great success since he began his craft in 1977.
