The home and creator of “Woodland A.I.” A new form of indigenous art. 4 Chiefs of the future by Mark Anthony Jacobson 2024

Saturday, August 30, 2025

I’m feeling calm, cool and collected here @ Jacobson native art with no need to rush….just taking my time with all of this

 

Prompt: Warrior, survivor and master of reality. 2025 (Woodland A.I.) 


Good afternoon to each and everyone. Just a quick update that I’m in a good place with myself. My family feels safe, we are healthy and strong and I’m at a place of simple peace. I feel rested this weekend and enjoyed some good conversation with some media folk but not interested in giving away my case to them either. I must stay focused on the real task at hand which is to go to court and share my entire story and evidence there. That’s where it matters most. I’m sure everyone will be focused on those days where everything that happened and in whom I’ve found will be more carefully shared there. I just think the onus, care of duty, transparency and such should be shouldered by those concerning the estate of Norval Morrisseau. They are the ones guilty of silence and attempting to sweep this underneath the carpet with everyone they deal with. Pretending like this was non existent. 

That is not the case any longer. I’ve done so much in carrying this weight and truth around these discoveries that for the first time in a long long time, I feel at peace. I don’t feel so burdened and stressed out about all this investigative knowledge over the last few years. I feel like a bigger purpose of this truth is now being laid out for me and of course many others. The world feels brighter today. I feel good about standing on this new ground. Something I’ve struggled with for quite sometime. 


Those who have been following this story are most certainly now aware that I’m in real time now. I’m going forward with regard to suing my historic sexual abuser. I’m ready to go down this path and shine the light of truth. I’m just sick and tired of all the fabrications around this so-called great master in Morrisseau. In my view and experience that is simply not true. The world itself ought to be given this opportunity as well. To see it through my eyes, through my experience. That is my goal. To share the truth and to expose this for what it is. A multi generational lie…

Sharing some excellent news: My statement of claim has been filed today. We are fully ready to go the whole distance….


Prompt: The spirit of integrity and the hunt for justice. 2025

I feel really good about my statement of claim being filed today. Step by step we are getting everything into proper alignment. I am definitely feeling strong and determined. I know it will be a waiting game going through this entire process but I’m ok with that. I’ve been through so much suffering and pain throughout my lifetime that at some stage you just become comfortably numb to most of it. In other words I don’t fear it and I certainly don’t fear anyone associated with that spiritually bankrupt estate of Morrisseau. They’ll have their day in court with me now. We’ll walk through the whole entire process and I’ll get my chance to announce to the world everything that happened and what I have found. The 7 victims I’ve discovered including myself will no doubt see the light of day. It’s about standing up for us. Even though that in itself has been a super challenging process and experience. 

There comes a point when the burden of truth must be revealed and shared. The same old lie must be exposed for what it is and the record must be made straight. Not just for me, but for countless others who by their innocence were betrayed. I understand this. The trust and care  that I should’ve received was paramount. Both Norval and his pimp in Gabe Vadas had total duty to take care of that. They did not. They crossed the line and Norval sexually assaulted me. I believe that shitbag Gabe Vadas had orchestrated the whole thing. When it gets to testifying I’ll be able to go into precise detail. Unlike Vadas and Morrisseau, I have been sober from alcohol and hard drugs for 27 years now. I used to witness Gabe giving drinks to Morrisseau in the van when I used to visit. I also tried to help Gabe after these events when one morning he called me in Vancouver and had asked me to help him when he relapsed on crack cocaine. In AA we have a saying that when anyone anywhere reaches out for the hand of AA, I want my hand to be there. For that I am responsible. 

Imagine that? Believing so much in the miracle of recovery that I even put that bit between my teeth and went and carried the message to him. I even took him through some step work but he never ended up following through. After this he would talk with me randomly but was incoherent most of the time. I’ve always believed that Gabe suffers from dual diagnosis. Both addiction and mental health problems. There were times when he would discredit my experiences with him and Norval and would ramble on that he was like Jesus. That he had the same powers and such. That he too,  like his sexual mentor in Norval Morrisseau was a sex shaman of some sort. Really weird and creepy shit to be honest. Because I believe so much in the power of the 12 steps, I guess I had always hoped that there could’ve been another way to amend these wrongs. But it never happened. I’ve waited for years now and nothing. It’s embarrassing for them really. I’m a pretty reasonable person. But still? Nothing.

So I’ve chosen to take matters into the realms of colonial Canadian law. It’s a huge risk for me because as many of you know, I am a 60’s scoop survivor and I simply don’t have enough trust for the system. I don’t feel comfortable about it but it’s a necessary part of this journey. Working with one of the greatest souls I know in Dallas Thompson has given me plenty of insight. He is a true hero and no doubt stepped up and put himself on the line. He did so in some of the most difficult circumstances I have ever seen. So I can honestly say that in working with him and the 4 other survivors gave me great confidence that I too can walk through these doors. 

Another who has given me incredible insight and daily living experience and knowledge about how children ought to be viewed and protected is my 7 year old son, Sagein Wisdom. Through raising him with love, trust, confidence and understanding, this has given me incredible know how. I mean think about it, if anyone had ever done something like that to him which was done to me, what do you think I would do? 

Exactly. 

I learned that through being his father and by conducting myself with the upmost love and respect for my child that the same rules that apply to him, apply to me. That no one, absolutely fuckin no one has the right to cross the line and sexually touch me when I never asked for that. I never wanted that. It was absolutely repulsive. For the great Norval Morrisseau and his little pigpen pimp in Vadas to cross those lines. Why take such a gamble? Why destroy my true appreciation and respect? Why sabotage me like that? Why destroy my affection in a good and healthy way like that and contaminate my pure and honest intentions? Why fuck me up like that? Why degrade me in such a way? It’s fuckin despicable in every sense of the word. 

My son has no doubt been the driving force of my healing and contemplation. I am so blessed to have this super incredible relationship with my boy. He means everything to me and as I’ve shared many times here continues to be my greatest source of inspiration. The only one who could move mountains in my heart. He’s just that precious. He is the dazzling light of our Creator and to witness that in him each and every day and that this blueprint is how all children should be regarded is eternally life changing. The true magic of life is in our children. If any of you have missed out on your child’s childhood, I empathize with you and your children. There is nothing that can replace those precious years. It changes the children so much when parents fuck the whole thing up. It’s really devastating to the kids, first and foremost. I know because I’m a survivor of that too. 

So onward and upward we go. I’m fully ready to go and I have absolutely zero reservations. I know my truth and story. I lived it right up until this point, here and now. I’m not afraid. I am truth and I’m looking for reconciliation to myself first and foremost. Everything will follow from there. The time for change is upon us. Next? This whole entire legal process.

Miigwetch for now and more to come soon…Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ

The creative power of Woodland A.I. (Anishanabe intelligence) and the innovation being explored here @ Jacobson native art

 

Title of painting: Chiefs of the future - series 4. Size: 16 x 24 inches. 2024

Good evening and thank you for all the love and support behind the scenes going on in my life. I’m feeling grateful and ready to go. I’ve been busy developing different ideas into my woodland a.i concepts and I’m feeling tons of enthusiasm for some of these projects coming into fruition. I’ve got another 10 new images being developed and ready for new canvas paintings. That should be ready for pick up by next week. Feeling excited about this as these image prompts are spectacular to work with. Combining this technology with my work in woodland is totally new, fresh and inspiring. I welcome you to “Woodland A.I. 


I’m happy to also share that I finally got my will and testament written and legally worked out. That takes off a whole world of pressure and makes things precisely clear on how I want that to be settled for my son and his future. Having Jacobson bloodline family members as guardians of my estate for Sagein was paramount for the trust and commitment needed. I feel super confident in my choices around such a sensitive but necessary process. All of it being done in the colonial province of Ontario, my birthplace. What happened to some won’t happen to me. Even in the afterlife I’ll be keeping an eye on things. I feel secure in this knowledge. 
Prompt: Guardians of my estate @ Jacobson native art. 2025


Obviously this is just the bare necessities and a general outline but indeed it fully empowers my son as the CEO of Jacobson native art and fully acknowledges him as the source of carrying this legacy into future generations. His momma Kassondra will also play a critical role as she understands the very nature of this obligation. So with that worked out it gave me plenty of time and space to get my ducks in a row. Having clarity for my son is of the upmost importance. Like I often share he is the light of my world, the greatest teacher I have ever met and he’s just 7 years old. My boy….

Prompt: Nature and technology will find the way forward, together. 2025

I’ve got some new ideas that I want to try and experiment with and this prompt helps me to envision what that could look like. I want to see what I can do combining 3 art forms together as one. Something I’ve been dreaming to do and with A.I. as my creative apprentice, there is so much to explore in that realm. I’m excited to see what I’ll be able to do. These are such fun to play with and imagine. I suppose I’ll always love what I’ve accomplished in woodland style itself, mastering many of the masters before me. But this is something that only I can touch in this moment of time. Uncharted creative realms that even them would wish to play in. It’s exciting and thankfully separates me from the pack. No pun intended…lol. 

Prompt: Death to the war machine. 2025

This image prompt here will be a piece I build acknowledging the horror of war and my greatest wish for it to someday, end. I don’t like violence and in my view it is only necessary if someone really tries to fuck around. Self defence if all communication fails. The last resort if someone is trying to actually kill you. Then one must defend. Sad that I even have to say that but the reality is many simply cannot be trusted. They haven’t evolved. Their souls are stale. Their light dimmed. It’s a weakness. Violence. So I’ll attempt to put my voice into the mix sharing this future artwork as a statement of anti war, anti violence. I love the creative effect of how this robot turned out. The background is a bit wonky but I’ll strip all that away and redefine the image and paint my woodland style throughout it. 

It’s a powerful image, a powerful statement that I can make. This is where A.I. and I really get along. In co-creating and making art together. Of course I use it in many other ways as well but its primary function for me at this stage is making new art together that the world has never seen. That excites me. This moves me into undreamed of new worlds. I love A.I. for this reason and the creative collaboration and innovation is simply next level. In a lot of ways I’ve outgrown just regular woodland style. There’s only so much that can be done in that limited 2 dimensional realm. With woodland A.I the future is where I am now. It’s a spectacular new dimension to my work and creativity. 

More to come so please stay tuned as the future continues to unfold here @ Jacobson native art. Miigwetch, Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ πŸŒˆπŸ¦…πŸŒˆ

Continuing to work on new paintings and enjoying the magnificence of my boy, Sagein Wisdom

 

Title of painting: Spirits in love and loyalty. Size: 30 x 40 inches. Montreal, Que

Good morning to each and everyone and here’s to enjoying a spectacular summer vibe. Things are super busy and we’ve been a bit backlogged in certain aspects of the business. Our collections will be getting worked on with little giant productions out here in the Kootenay’s. As they say life happens and we’ve got lots of behind the scenes things in manifestation. Our focus is always moving forward and the research has been simply impeccable. 

The woodland A.I. (Anishanabe intelligence) is growing by leaps and bounds and our current 7 collections will be expanded on soon with another 6 coming into play. We’ve also got 4 new woodland collections to be added to the current 7 there. Our indigenous art box collection of the 4 seasons is also going to be back in full swing. Time, focus and execution are the energies being created and we look forward to sharing more soon. 

In honour of the visionary, the artist, the Creator

My son and I are getting a lot of time together this summer as I’ve decided to take a break from the gallery scenes I’ve been creating in the Kootenay region over the last 5 years. Been apart of putting together 3 spaces featuring indigenous art across Canada. Plus with amazing studio action as well. It’s been super awesome to be apart of that and spearheading indigenous art in the Kootenay mountains of B.C. My boy is thrilled each and every time we take the atv out for these incredible journey’s mountain hopping from one range to the next. The amount of space and freedom we have here living in this community of only 350 souls is incredible. Each day diving right into the heart of our Mother Earth. It’s phenomenal. 

Super busy no doubt but making quality time for my boy each and every day is the essence of why we chose to live out here. I scouted this area just a couple years before living here and absolutely fell in love with the vibe. Super grateful and indeed things are rollin along precisely as they should. More to come so stay tuned and enjoy this latest piece I finished this morning.
