THE ULTIMATE ART COLLECTION: Four Sketch books of Mishibinijima - 1969 - 2009

1. Business trade of the Great Lakes. 2.Sacred Grounds. 3.Thunder Stones. 4.Hungry Moon
Note: During the summer of 2001, I had the pleasure of international art curators visiting my art gallery and one happen to notice the sketch book case and asked what are those.

As they gatthered around the glass counter and open each page carefully, I explained each sketch which ultimatley became a painting and sold to art collectors around the world and few of them commented.

These are priceless and worth into the millions and asked me what am I going to do with them, I said someday, there's going to be a very important art collector which will acquire these books and you'll have the chance to direct your questions to them, my part is done because I made the painting to that sketch.

Journalist- Ms.. Mary Annette PEMBER

Mishibinijima and his work represent a power and spirit, so ethereal and sophisticated that they are indeed beyond words. His paintings speak to a deep, primordial element of the soul if we are brave enough and open enough to receive the message of his vision. His work is a source of constant surprise and spiritual sustenance for me, I am honored to know him: Ms. Mary Annette PEMBER, Red Cliff Ojibwe, works as a journalist focusing on Native American issues. Past president of the Native American Journalists Association, her work has appeared in The New York Times, Washington Post, The National Museum of the American Indian and others, more information about Ms. Pember is under her photo link.
