Hi Bernice,
I'm part of a small Oil and Gas venture called "QuickHatch Resources Ltd." and we were wondering if you would consider letting us use your native art Wolverine image.... We are shoe-string but I'm sure we could manage a small donation.Β It would striictly be used for our business cards and letterhead, and one appearance on our website splashpage with a kudo's to you.Β Interested?

Ahhhh I love that I can tell that you're a west coast Canuck just by looking at the style of your aboriginal artwork~! <3Β
Keep up the awesome work. It's refreshing to see something so familiar as a popular post on the front page of DA. More Haida/Salish/Nisga'a artwork please!! <3 <3 <3

I'm actually a relocated East Coaster. I also have lots of Woodland art from my home region.
Sadly, none of my artwork is particularly those three- my style tends to be reminiscent from Tlingit to kwa'aka'aakaw dominantly. I don't think I've done any Salish, tbh! Should remedy that. Formline style is very versatile, so it's a long learning process.

Sabtastic In reply to tarkheki [2015-10-07 03:29:10 +0000 UTC]
Oh!! Hahah sorry about my assumptions then.Β
I'm vaguely familiar with the Tlingit people -- the Nisga'a are relatively close in location I think?Β
Regardless, amazing work! c: Keep doing what you're doing!Β

I just wanted to say that I find your NW style art to be absolutely beautiful. I've come upon the style recently and I adore the use of lines and color, from an artistic standpoint, and yet the symbolism and meaning of it all, from a sentimental standpoint. I understand it's a very, shall we say, revered and private style of art. Do you have any suggestions or references you'd suggest for someone just trying to learn more about it? I wouldn't feel comfortable working in the style, but I definitely want to learn as much as I can about it. It's beautiful and inspiring

tarkheki In reply to WingsForDreams [2015-04-09 01:26:07 +0000 UTC]
Suggestions of that kind escape me- the best is to find books that accumulate a gallery of contemporary art and see if the additional notes gives you something worth introspection [they usually do]. To find information on the traditional side, I find asking the people themselves is the best way to go. Which is simpler if you lived in the North West Pacific, not as simple if you don't. That side isn't covered in any books- only through a teaching process.

WingsForDreams In reply to tarkheki [2015-04-09 02:08:46 +0000 UTC]
Thanks for the reply! I've found a couple of texts I hope to at least begin to help on the subject. It would indeed be easier if I lived in the Northwest Pacific; it is indeed trickier being in the [comparatively] Southeast Atlantic I do appreciate you taking the time to reply and I wish you the best in your own artistic journey!

Recently I had gone to Vikings, Dragons and Fairies. and I had seen some awesome leather bracers with Fenrir on them, the guy working there said that u made them, my plan was to buy two for myself but when I tried them on they were too small, but the guy working there said u might be able to do custom orders, is that true?

tarkheki In reply to GrizzlyGus92 [2014-07-10 06:20:20 +0000 UTC]
Yes, it IS true, I CAN do those custom orders, but they do demand a little more time and monetary fund. If you are interested, feel free to send me a note, and we can discuss!

I love the way how you've planned out every single artistic idea of yours from time to time. Β are you in the animation film business? I'm still a student at the AAU going for the game game design industry. Our ideas for art seem Β so similar especially the native american part! I wish i could ask for advice from you later on, i like the way how your mind thinks. Β
