 We are thrilled to announce this year's winner of our T-Shirt Logo Contest. A huge congratulations to Craig Simon, a Year 11 Student at Highland Senior Secondary School. Craig was born on Vancouver Island. He comes from the Anishinaabe people of the Upper Lake Huron area of Ontario.
Craig chose to represent the K'ómoks land with the sea otters specific to the ocean landscape; and heron as he is from the Heron Clan. He drew it in Anishinaabe Woodland Style, as his Grandmother has in the past. The Anishinaabe peoples are divided into a number of doodeman, or clans, with Craig's ancestors being from the Heron Clan, their animal totem or doodem. In Anishinaabemowin, ode' means heart. Doodem or clan translates as 'the expression of, or having to do with one's heart.' From our hearts to you, Craig, you honour us by sharing your work and the artistic style of your Grandmother living on through you. Please join us in wishing him our heartfelt thank you for his wonderful submission. A very special thank you, too, to his amazing Art Teacher, Barbara Mareck. It warms our hearts to have someone like her in our community who works hard to inspire our youth. Barbara, you are amazing! Barbara will be showcasing Craig's work and the art from her other talented students at their school.. Comments are closed.
