Gorgeous early evening in #KulleetBay yesterday. Seen from the beach at the rez. #Stzuminus#FirstNation territory stretches over 1,200 hectares which includes four reserves; Say-la-quas 10, Squaw-hay-one 11, Oyster Bay 12, and Chemainus 13. Stz’uminus First Nation members speak Hul’qumi’num. The Stzʼuminus are well-known for their war canoes. The vessels can range from 19 to 52 feet long. They are made of cedar and hand carved.
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!
I will be creating new art from this newly rewakened, inspired by my heart feelings. You will start to see some of that new art, next week. Stay tuned ❤️🙏
All of us life long creative #artists tend to create more art when we are feeling immensely hurt or immensely loved. Those intense moments of our lives always ignite our inner creative souls to express our feelings through our artworks.
Bad news. My left ankle foot brace orthotics funding request was denied today. I'm now paying out of pocket for it. It costs $2600. I can pay it but will then be short for 2 utility bills balances owing & some medications costs for April. I picked up a wedding photography side gig for May so will be OK for upcoming months.
- partial hydro bill due April 4th, I paid most of balance with $310 owing. We got a disconnection notice letter today & they gave us until Friday. - $244.45 for Mom's insulin & needles, needed by April 10, when she runs out. - $142.76 for balance owing on internet bill
Total needed to be raised asap is $697.21.
If you can help me out at all, please send any amount you can via e-transfer ( I can DM email ) or my PayPal or Kofi (link in bio). Please boost, if you're unable to donate. Thank you 🙏
Some dude in a #Tesla just complimented my crows cawing out my friend's truck window, at Royal Oak shopping centre traffic light. I told him, Thanks! Then told him to sell his fucking #Nazi car 🤣 Then the green light came on & we drove away 😅
