Beau used his day off to go hiking up a mountain to do some #CedarBark #harvesting for more traditional #CoastSalish #weaving work.
He sent me photos as he hiked through the forest. These are just the bark harvest related photos with one fairy slipper orchid wildflower photo - he knows my fave colour is purple

A collage of images showing the process of stripping bark from a cedar tree and its uses. Images include a cedar tree with a long strip of bark removed revealing smooth wood underneath, close-up of hand touching stripped bark, rolled up harvested bark, forest floor scenery consisting of moss, twigs, and a purple wildflower.

AKA forcing Native American and Black students to the community college down the street.

And to trade schools.

Or low-paying jobs.

Or the military.

And Black students to HBCU'S in Texas and Oklahoma.

The Wild Woman of the Woods mask is complete. It's mounted on an entry wall at Wellington high school in #Nanaimo.

Close-up studio shot of a carved face mask against a white background. The mask is predominantly black with contrasting bright red lips. The dark hair fringe is arranged around the face. Lighting is soft, highlighting the textures surface. The composition is centered, focusing on the mask's expression.

Beau sent me an update photo of the #DugoutCanoe that some students at Wellington high school in #Nanaimo are working to help carve. It is coming along so beautifully!

Please support BC Indigenous artists https://www.beauwagner.ca/coast-salish-art/shop

He is off work from public schools this Summer & is open for #CoastSalish #ArtCommissions.

Medium shot of a carved, unfinished wooden dugout cedar canoe. The canoe is the primary focus, positioned horizontally in the foreground and running the length of the picture. The ground is splattered with wood shavings. The background includes a picnic table on the left with a log laid across it, plants, and a modern building with reflective windows. The lighting is overcast, with cool tones dominating the scene. The composition emphasizes the craftsmanship of the canoe against the backdrop of a contemporary school environment.

Forcing Black and Native students to CNM.

And Black students to HBCU'S.

Or into low-paying jobs with no chance for advancement.

One of the best #Indigenous #comedians - the legendary #CharlieHill R.I.P.
He was such a #trailblazer & inspiration for many native comedians who came after. RichardPryor recognized Charlie's talent & gave him a TV spotlight in the late 70s.
