The Medicine Man
A Letter of Appreciation & Blessings
I created this piece to express my gratitude and respect for all Mi’kmaq elders – both men and women, who are so lovingly and generously guiding us with their teachings and medicines. My elders guided me during the creation of this piece, to make sure the powerful symbolism it holds is true to the Mi’kmaq traditions and beliefs. When I presented the first reproduction to Grandmother Jeorgina Larocque, she approved and blessed the sculpture. I therefore promise myself that for every purchase of a reproduction, a percentage of the sale will be returned to the Mi’kmaq community. It is my prayer that the reproductions of the Medicine Man will bring joy, love, healing and many blessings to all who get to enjoy it. May the spirit of the Medicine Man sculpture heal the divide and bring cultures closer together. Wela’lin (Thank you)

“To me The Green Man represents that wonderful relationship between the plant world and men. Because we have been put here together, when I looked at this one that Lidia did; what I saw in his face was hope. Some of the ones I saw in the past when I looked online looked very disparaging and negative and fearful but this… this is Hope!”
