Title: For future generations. Size: 48 x 72 inches. Sold to private collection
Just wishing all those loyal to me in my current friendships around the world a wonderful and creative journey in life. Many of you have been absolutely solid in our inner circles and we enjoy such clear and honest energy with one another. I’m truly grateful for that. I’m back at it getting into my next series of paintings to do and had fun mixing up 22 new colours to play with. Always a good sign when fresh paint is mixed and ready to go…
I’ll admit feeling inspirational has been a bit of a challenge with regard to the dark forces I am exposing regarding my lawsuit. But I’m still moving forward one day at a time. The seasons are changing quite dramatically up here in the Kootenay mountains and it’s absolutely fascinating to be deep in the midst of these cycles of change. I’m enjoying October baseball as well with the blue jays being in the World Series. Great to see such super high level ball being played. That 18 inning game was beautiful even though the jays lost. Tonight they won 6 - 2 so it’s 2 games a piece in this best of 7. Any how just wanted to share some positive energy and that I’m getting set to work on the next series of paintings…
Enjoy this classic by Steve Miller band. Song: Swingtown. Tonight’s vibe in the art studio…

No doubt there are levels to this game of life and I truly see so much now as the direct result of coming forward. Most of what I am witnessing is the utter weakness of many around the corrupt world of the pedophile sex abuser in Norval Morrisseau and his spiritually bankrupt legacy. Really gross energy. From the estate itself and pretty much everyone else connected to it. It’s gross. Money grubbing lawyers, so-called bullshit experts, fake ass people with hidden agendas, weak character, scumbag liars with no moral fibre or backbone. Some have said I am the kiss of death, I’m trying to assassinate the pedophile shamans legacy.
I disagree with all that nonsense.
I’m here to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. This is the reality and because of that some people will unfortunately get exposed. People will get hurt. But it’s the truth itself that is leading the way. I am simply the messenger. I am the change agent. I am the one willing to go all the way. To shine a light on these historic sex crimes, living or dead, all of it must come forward. Destiny awaits…these are the instructions. I am grateful that my Creator supports me, is protecting me in this very dark world that we all live in.
I trust that no matter how challenging this undertaking is, I’m doing the right thing. Yes it’s a terrible weight to carry, but I must continue forward. At this point I’m the only one strong enough to tell these truths I’ve discovered including my own story. I am a truthteller and because of that some will hate me for it. That is none of my business. I’m not looking for friendships around this. I learned a long time ago that the realm of Morrisseau is absolutely fucked. I could not trust them. They all have hidden motives and agendas. It’s all about making a buck off the dead pedophile artist. As sad and pathetic as that is, it’s the truth. My difficulties have been having to compete with this truth of discovering Morrisseau was just that, a pedophile sex abuser. Difficult and super challenging to have any real measure of success in the Canadian art scene as the direct result. Who the fuck wants to deal with that? Exactly. It’s not right. On another note I am thankful that they have been cut away from my life. I am being protected. This is the spiritual reality for me.
The shame is on those who are willing to lie, are willing to hide underneath a rock hoping against hope that I just keep my mouth shut. Creator knows better. That’s where I put my faith and trust. Not in men. Not in any human beings. But in the truth of the Creators ways. The real architect of honesty. Not in this world or it’s people. That is where I stand and yes, the “Great Spirit” sees it all. Sees all the reservations, the hiding, the fears, the resentments, the hate, the manipulators, the cheats, the liars in all their self will glory.
It’s stunning really. Former friends being removed from my orbit because they cannot be here for me. They cannot move past themselves. They cannot reconcile because my level of truth destroys their delusions. It’s too hard for them to accept. Maybe over time but I’m not holding my breath. I see you for who you really are. Any how, much more to come and now that the legal sphere is starting to digest these facts I’ve disclosed I’m looking forward to the next steps. As they say, the truth will set you free. Stay tuned…Miigwetch, Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ ππ¦ π

They say the truth will set you free? I’m sure for many that this is true but I can also say that the truth can be a difficult and heavy burden to carry. Either way it certainly will never lie, this I most certainly know and understand. For me this weight has been a difficult thing to carry. But from this point forward there is no turning back. Not for me and not for others who have been enlightened by these revelations I’ve shared. I’ll always believe it is wrong to prop up sexual abusers as cultural icons.
My only wish was to come forward and expose the research I found including my own experience of what happened to me. I only wanted to tell the truth, because I discovered that I wasn’t alone. I believe in truth and reconciliation but before anyone can reconcile we must learn the truth. This has been my chief mission in uncovering, discovering and then recovering what really took place, what really happened. The undiluted truth, as challenging and ugly as it is in regards to everything I have said, shared and found. With several other victims that I have now shared legally, I can prove a pattern beyond just myself. The legal orbit beyond this case is now being made aware. The Canadian media is becoming aware and the general sphere of the corrupt world of Morrisseau is becoming aware.
I understand how hard it is to accept that. I too once held Morrisseau in high esteem. But never again will I allow myself to be fooled like this ever again. He will always be a child sex predator who was gay, a gay sex abuser who abused young boys and young men. I feel sorry for any and all lawyers who will find this truth difficult to digest. My advice to any of you is don’t allow yourselves to be deceived by money or those trying to protect it. You now see. It’s undeniable.
I’ll share more as this story continues to unfold but rest assured I feel different these days. Like a weight I’ve carried is finally being addressed. I can let it go. I have told the truth and I have done the right thing. I will continue to move forward one day at a time. It’s how I live my life down here on planet earth. I am setting the record straight and I feel this sense of deep purpose as the direct result. I trust my Creator and I trust that the ancestors are with me…honouring the living and the dead by telling the truth.

Good afternoon and welcome once again to Jacobson native art. I just wanted to make some things clear for those following this story that the corruption within the estate of Norval Morrisseau runs deep. Their response to my claim being filed was an absolute joke at best. It’s pathetic really. The reality is that the estate is being run by white colonizers in Gabe Vadas and Cory ding dong Dingle who had a bizarre relationship with the child sex abuser in Norval Morrisseau. We simply cannot rely on these people to tell us the truth. They fear this truth that I am bringing forward as someone who was also sexually abused. They remind me as a 60’s scoop survivor of what took place regarding the Canadian government trying to deny what happened in residential schools. It’s the same formula from the colonial playbook. It’s absolutely disgusting. Even that poor lawyer of theirs has to step up to the plate and attempt to protect their lies. Trying everything in their colonial power to have my case dismissed before it even happens. Pathetic.
I will never honour or respect people like them who have tried to paint me in the media as some broken and confused individual. I know exactly what happened to me. First off, it’s been an embarrassing weight that I’ve had to carry for the last 19 years. Having to face this garbage on a daily basis for such a long time. Someone I once held in such high esteem to turn out to be a total piece of shit of a human being. When I found the other 6 victims and their names, I had to do something. I couldn’t just let this whole thing slide. It’s absolutely wrong to hide this truth and to say nothing. I had to come forward and believe me it certainly hasn’t been easy. The delusion that Norval was some genius and a great role model for us younger First Nations simply isn’t the truth. He sexually abused children, young boys and young men. That is the reality that I experienced and have found. I simply cannot allow Colonialism to hide our stories and discoveries. We are in a time of truth and reconciliation. Not hide and deny. That is not the future I want for anybody including most importantly, our children. Both here and now and in our future generations. The truth of these stories must have their day in court. The Supreme Court of British Columbia to be exact.
Let’s get a couple of other things cleared up here as well. As ding dong Dingle has claimed that I wanted to be like Norval Morrisseau fashioning myself like him? Lol. Not true. Before any of this happened to me I did hold a lot of respect for Norval but I never wanted to be like him. I never wanted to be gay, bisexual or a sexual abuser like Norval Morrisseau. I’m a heterosexual man, I’m a great father who is dedicated to my son and family. Regarding his art? Most people who know woodland art would say that I surpassed Morrisseau along time ago. I would agree. I simply took what he had done and made it better. Cleaner and sharper. Norval himself could never paint his own style better than I can. I’m just simply a better version. I’m a better human being and have been on the path of sobriety for the last 27 years now. Something Norval could never do throughout his lifetime. Regarding being a father? He abandoned all his children so that he could chase the colonizers carrots. He was a chronic sex addict as well who preyed on vulnerable young men and boys. I don’t act that way and I have no interest in being a sexual predator like him.
Pictured here: Gary Lamont wanted to be like his buddy here in Norval Morrisseau
There are just so many differences between us and after discovering the sex crimes and coming forward about it? Why on earth would I look to him as a cultural icon and in whom I should align my values with. It simply isn’t true what fuck nut Dingle has to say. He’s got a major invested interest in doing everything he can to try and squash this story. During the fraud investigation he was all over kigigi, ebay, Craigslist etc buying up as many Morrisseau paintings that he could. That is the reality going on here and I’m sure we’ll expose that as this story continues to unfold. My advice to all my collectors and fans is be aware. The truth I represent is real. These are truthful accounts that I am bringing to light. No lies. Just real facts of discovery and personal experience. My response through my affidavit will make these clearer because unfortunately, these people are willing to sell their souls to uphold the lies that have been revealed through my investigations on this subject. I know the truth, they can’t stand it that I’m coming forward to shed this light for many who didn’t know. To those who knew? I’ll be exposing everything that I have found. You can count on me to do so…

Prompt: The final battle between copper and Rainbow Thunderbird - 2025
Here is what A.I had to say about this quote:
Albert Einstein’s quote “If I were to remain silent I’d be guilty of complicity” suggests that he believed speaking out against injustice or wrong doing is crucial. In essence, staying silent would make him complicit in the wrongdoing, implying that silence can be seen as tacit approval or acceptance. This quote highlights the importance of using one’s voice to stand up against injustices and promote positive change by telling the truth. Given your background in art and indigenous rights, you may think this quote is particularly relevant in the context of using your platform to raise awareness about such important issues.
I have to say that indeed my entire being resonates with this in every sense of its meaning. I will not hide my truth and story and I will expose everything I’ve discovered and found. Believe me if you have any doubts, go and ask Gary Lamont what it was like confronting and dealing with me? (Interesting how Creator put all of you on my path in real time)
I’m not afraid of any of you. It was having to go through the colonial system that was my most difficult contemplation. Being a 60’s scoop and suffering from the continual oppression and effects of genocide by Canada was more of a challenge. I still have deep and embedded issues with that. The problem for you will be that I’m absolutely 100% willing to go all the way. I spent 20 years in this Morrisseau cesspool of absolute fuckin filth. Facing any of you in court will be a cakewalk. I have so much evidence that I have acquired along with first hand witnesses, truth tellers, affidavits, letters of support, placing the time and dates of the sex crimes, the human trafficking, detailed accounts of the sexual abuse that it’s going to be very very difficult to defend.
And then my story. Which is absolutely appalling that none of you have even wanted to address or confront. You’ve gone on pretending like I don’t even exist. That’s fuckin shameful. Especially you, Dingle. I can’t wait to look you in the eyes, face to face, man to man. Same with you Gabe Vadas. You fuckin bullshitter of a human being. You have a lot of enemies for how you have behaved. Your time of hiding in the shadows will be over. With regard to sex predator Norval Morrisseau’s children? My fight really isn’t with you. But I know the stories about your brother David, what happened to him by your father and what David also did, his sex crimes as well.
My advice to you kids is find a way to get rid of Gabe Vadas and the sooner you fire ding dong Dingle? The better. What these men are guilty of in my eyes and experience is pure and utter gross negligence. Imagine how many people will be up in arms doing business with the estate in this fashion? Knowing what I’m telling you but hiding this reality? Rather than shoot the pedophile artist on to the moon? You should’ve focused on the remaining matters down here on earth. There will be so much for you to do in cleaning up this entire mess. I also think that you children created a huge mess being involved in the fraud of your sex predator fathers works. You owe an apology to thousands of us woodland school artists, First Nations and Canadians and others worldwide for what you’re guilty of in regards to your involvement in the fraud. Shame on you.
Pictured here: Eugene Morrisseau admiring a fake
I have found 7 victims so far that have to be accounted for. I have these stories and contacts and I have information that backs up my entire story and statement of claim. Make no mistake about it, I’m not here for any type of revenge or plot. I’m here to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help me Creator. This is a mission of standing up for myself, for the fellow victims I’ve discovered and found and setting the record straight, once and for all. That on the balance of probabilities? I’m armed to the teeth with truth.
More coming soon….Miigwetch. Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ ππ¦ π
P.S: you can deny my claims until the fuckin cows come home, but it’s the truth I hold that should very well concern you…π
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.

Good morning to each and everyone and I sure hope many of you are enjoying the beautiful energy of summer. We’ve been very busy and I’m feeling great about getting back to my commissions list. Slowly getting through the process and finding more time to get back into the creative swing of things. I’ve been working on a whole new bunch of woodland A.I. paintings as well. With me I like to have several projects going on at the same time. Keeps me in the flow and I also have periods where the artist needs to rest. Focus on other tasks and situations that are going on for me as well.
This painting is going to another fabulous collector who has bought several paintings over the last 18 months. I’m honoured and grateful for the amazing blessings and opportunities. Life is definitely taking on new meaning and I’ve found a new level within me no doubt about it. I’m very excited for what awaits in the near future. The time and space has arrived on my journey and there is revolutionary change upon the horizons. These are no doubt exciting times.
Enjoy this new release and indeed we’ll be building new collections around this masterpiece. With new worlds of inspiration and innovation taking shape there is a whole new vastness of clarity and focus manifesting in my life. There will be much more to come so thank you for staying in the loop here @ Jacobson native art. Miigwetch, Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ ππ¦ π

Prompt: I am my own power. The future of Woodland A.I. (Anishanabe intelligence)
Wishing many of you a beautiful weekend of strength, hope, love and healing. The summer is rollin along wonderfully and after many months of doubt, struggle, sadness and grief, I feel different. Something has dramatically shifted and changed. The big fear has always been trusting this colonial system and having to walk through doors that essentially tried to destroy me. Putting any kind of faith in a system that hardly gets true justice. It’s such a risk to have to do that. The embarrassment of my struggle, the anger and frustration of not being taken seriously by some and outright being ignored and made small in the eyes of the liars. That time is over.
I am willing to go all the way. No matter what happens or how it turns out. I must walk through those doors. I’m not afraid to go all the way through. To walk through the darkness and expose and bring those discoveries to light. For everyone to see. To expose everything that I have learned and discovered. Not only is it not fair to the truth of who I am, but it is not fair to the masses who simply don’t know. I believe that this burden of truth is my responsibility to endure. To educate. To share with the world. I have a team of people who truly believe me. Who believe my story and who agree that a greater light must be shed on everything that I know. That requires others to help me. I believe I have found that help. Truly exceptional souls who stand on my side and in my corner.
I feel like I’ve found a new level and what has been festering in me for quite some time now has a place and time to be sorted out. I have an opportunity to open it all up. Everything that has happened and how it’s effected me. I never fully understood the loneliness of this entire journey and having to strip all those false people who were around me, away. Big changes and a ton of letting it go. Like a surrender. That I needed help from others in different places. Well that help is here. It has arrived and I feel honoured, grateful and thankful for souls who can connect with me and represent many of my interests. The time for revolution is here. The time for execution is at hand. I am my own power. My own sovereignty as Anishanabe. Proud to be who I am. Proud to overcome and come to terms with this next journey that will be the biggest storm of truth that I’ve embarked upon. Things need to change. I am the courage to change the things I can. I am the wisdom to know the difference.
After everything I’ve experienced, seen, witnessed and processed….it’s time. Im ready to move forward and to confront the lies, deceptions and ignorance that has had many still sleepwalking. What was it that the great author in Stephen King had once said:
The trust of the innocent is the liars most useful tool.
Well, that’s going to change. I’ve seen enough. I’ve been through enough. I’ve had enough of watching the colonizer shit show unfolding throughout our woodland school. I have gathered a ton of information and stories and I have been vocal enough to question the myths and confront the truths. I’ve shone light on the lies and have uncovered facts that will expose that legacy for what it is. Change is upon us. I will be the instrument of that change. I never asked for any of this, it happened to me. I got to see it for what it really is….a lie.
More to come and Miigwetch for the future. Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ ππ¦ π

Happy national indigenous peoples day to all my friends and family. A big Miigwetch of love and respect to many of my art fans and collectors and I am so blessed to have dedicated people who surround me each and every day. I am honoured that I can speak the truth and to continue trudging this road of life and destiny. I’ll be celebrating 27 years off the booze and I’m super grateful for this blessing. It has changed my life so dramatically and obviously has introduced me to a vast knowledge and know how in spirituality. My sovereignty as an Anishanabe culture creator/artist lighting the way for 40 plus years now. What a ride so far in this the 21st century.

Just feeling some gratitude for what is working in my life. The love for my son and being a good partner to his mom and us working on the healing and freedom through decolonization of being solid in our family unit starts there each and every day. The foundation of our family is we walk in a softer, kinder and gentler way each and every day. Freedom to be ourselves and giving one another all the space in the world to be ourselves. We don’t practice control, zero violence, no manipulation, speak freely, always room to grow, have fun, be genuine.
Having the space to be your own genuine self in your family is absolutely essential. No one wants to be told what to do, arguing is pointless. Being a good listener who follows up with positive actions and walks with self honesty and integrity is where it’s at. We have one another’s back. Every day. It’s pretty awesome and inspiring learning how to be healthy and strong together. I love my family. They love me. We’re cool.
Here are a few good teachings to practice and try to live by.
1: Be honest. Be authentic. It’s the light of your spirit.
2: Daily prayer and meditation keep the mind clean & quiet.
3: Anishanabe ways work. Use them. It’s good medicine.
4: It doesn’t matter how others think of you. It matters how you think of you.
5: Gratitude is powerful. It helps to transcend suffering.
6: Observance of source in all things. Hard to do when humans can be horribly ugly.
7: Nurturance of life. Give, share, nurture others, kindness and respect.

Once again I say chi-Miigwetch for all the good being created and shared with us and I look forward to continuing to share much more over the next few months. We’ve got some very exciting things waiting to be shared and we continue to expand our creative vision and blueprint. Here’s to the healing of all First Nations people and I’m thankful to continue to be an authentic source for truth and reconciliation and I appreciate many of you so very much. Stay tuned as we’ve got more to share…

Pictured here: A.I. prompt of when 2 worlds collide - the magic of woodland A.I.
Good evening to each and everyone and it’s a pleasure to share in some of the new foundations I’ve created that have never before been seen in the entire woodland school of art. My new indigenous art genre has no doubt separated me from the rest of the pack and I’ve invented a whole new framework of experiencing the essence of the art form. Moving from the traditional storytelling of the past, I’ve leaped into undreamed of new worlds, new galaxies and deep into the mysteries of the universe. Art is first and foremost visual and to take what I’ve shaped in the woodland art form for over 40 years now and move it into these completely new visionary contexts is absolutely transformational. It’s new energy. It’s new life. It’s new storytelling.
That is the new foundation I have laid down through Woodland A.I. To collaborate with this new technology and bring forth a new way of seeing the future through my indigenous lens, feels phenomenal. We live up here in the Kootenay mountains of B.C. and our vastness of space and time here is immense to say the least. My son and I get to play undistracted and free. There is usually no one back in these mountains to impinge upon our sovereignty. It’s clean, clear and full of natural abundance and spirit. It’s quiet and serene. The creative imagination and playfulness of my boy and I gives us so much freedom to just be father and son. Hanging out in all of this and playing in our backyard is pure creative bliss. We are building heavenly kingdoms in our hearts and souls together. There is no doubt that my son inspires me like no other. He is the center of my life, the joy of my heart and my greatest teacher.
Being here and being ever present in his daily life is also the creative energy that gave birth to this new art movement in woodland A.I. It all happened during his 7 years so far of being alive. It’s like a gift he brought to me. So for that, I’m eternally grateful. He absolutely loves this new form and is a big part of the inspiration that makes it all happen…
A.I. image prompt: In another dream, it’s a different future for Mukwa
These new image prompts have given me a new look into how I can merge the 2 worlds of nature and technology together. We chose the apex predators of grizzly bears and cougars which are boss up here where we live. Obviously I’ll tweak these images and make some adjustments when getting them prepped for canvas. I’ll build from there. This is the future. We will no doubt be collaborating with A.I. to find ways of saving ourselves and nature from extinction. This is why the elements of the earth, air, water and fire have brought forth this gift to humanity. It will be our responsibility to protect the natural world and to work with our technological know how to implement solutions for all life upon the earth, water and skies. For me? It’s a gift…A.I.
These new ideas and concepts are the lifeblood of what I’m trying to communicate in this new indigenous art form in woodland A.I. There is no going back. I have found my new creative language and I have found new teachings to bring forth for the whole world to see and experience. Of course there are those who still love my woodland style and I’ll continue to serve them through the process of commissions etc. but my heart is here. I can do things that I never could do before with this new creative collaboration. I am forever thankful that I took this leap of faith and was daring enough to bring something forward the world has never seen…welcome to Woodland A.I.
Miigwetch and all my relations. More to come…

A.I. image prompt: Somewhere out there, it’s a different technology for the mountain lion
Good evening to everyone who continues to come by and spend some time here @ Jacobson native art. Just wanted to share that everything is rolling along here nicely one day at a time. I’m feeling happy and content with where my heart and spirit is at. Creatively I’m up and down a bit but these new works bring a whole new burst of excitement and imagination that quite frankly I’ve been searching for on some new level. I think I’ve discovered that here with my new genre in woodland A.I.
The new innovation taking shape through my view and creative interpretation with using this next level technology in A.I. which for me stands for: “Anishanabe intelligence”. I am Anishanabe and yes, I’m intelligent. So with my personal experience and indigenous lens, I get to shape it in how I see fit. Not even A.I. itself is capable of putting it together like I can in Woodland A.I. It takes me to make it happen. I’m the instrument willing to channel this new creative horizon with all these unique aspects and qualities involved in that creative process. My visionary mindset and intelligence in how I choose to make it all happen is the spark of that creativity. Without me? Nothing happens like this. It’s a cool vibe for me to spread my wings and fly…
I retook the image of this painting titled: I am woodland A.I. - I am Rainbow Thunderbird in a shaded natural light setting, out doors. We can plainly see the difference in colour saturation in the examples of this post and the one below it. The first image I took in doors with an art lamp. Shines the colours differently but I think this second photo in natural light outdoors is a significant difference. The feel of the work of art feels more complete and in colour sync. I’m pleased with the outcome and we are currently in process and development on our little giant productions platform of 10 new collections being prepared to the already 16 collections being currently represented. We’ll have 6 new woodland A.I. images and collections being released including 4 new woodland art images and collections being built. Very exciting times.
In the meantime I’m working on my commissions list and building more woodland A.I. paintings in the process. I’m also spending so much quality time with my boy in Sagein Wisdom. He’s 7 years old now and over the last 6 months has developed an obsession with mathematics and learning how to take pictures and videos. We get to spend every day learning and loving this incredible journey of life together. He is no doubt, the light of my world. The centre of my universe. The greatest teacher I’ve ever met. The patriarch of the entire Jacobson bloodline. The CEO of Jacobson native art. Stay tuned my friends and indeed there is much more to come…

Title of painting: I am woodland A.I - I am Rainbow Thunderbird 14 x 22 inches
Good evening to each and everyone here @ Jacobson native art. Been a busy weekend getting new canvases prepped for my next creative cycle regarding my list of commissions and such. Feeling joyful and quite satisfied with these 2 new releases of my new indigenous art genre in woodland A.I. Once again it was very challenging to work with these smaller brushes and I did some experimentation in these pieces as well working with acrylic paint pens and found them to be a nice addition to working with smaller pieces.
These were a whole lot of fun and I see so much creative potential in this new discovery. I love playing around with these interesting concepts and ideas. I feel myself being challenged and looking at my artistic process in a whole new dimension really. No doubt pushing the boundaries of the entire woodland school of art into the future. To tell you the truth, I can’t even look at regular woodland art anymore. I’ve found a completely new level for me and there’s no stopping my unlimited potential in how I can collaborate with this technology. For me, woodland A.I. stands for Anishanabe intelligence. It’s an incredible gift this new technology. From the Fire and Water spirits, those elementals creating through electricity and light. Blessing humanity with the ability to shift up the world game on planet Earth in ways that we can only imagine. So imagine we shall. I’ll continue to explore and expand my knowledge and artistic path by moving forward more in this direction as time passes. This new door will for sure be one of the highlights of my artistic legacy.

Creating these works inspire me greatly and I love the energy I get to play with and imagine. It’s truly created a new hope in me as an artist. There’s just so much wickedness and darkness in the woodland school. Many fake artists and wanna be’s tryin their hardest to be a colonial something on the Canadian art scene. It’s really weird when you continue to decolonize. You get an inside view on how the big machine works. It’s fake light. Being in nature is a whole other ball game. It changes you. Your goals, dreams and desires, they change. That has been my experience. I’ve been in the woodland school art scene for 40 plus years now. I’ve seen it all. Pretty much what most are doing. I had to find a new level. I mastered the woodland style and I needed a new challenge. A new direction. A new art form. A new energy in woodland A.I.
Enjoy these new paintings on unstretched canvas. I really had such a blast making these happen and here they are pushing the boundaries of indigenous art for future generations. With that I say chi-Miigwetch and all my relations. More to come…

Good afternoon to each and everyone and once again it is an absolute pleasure to continue sharing the spectacular creativity we’ve got going on here @ Jacobson native art. All decisions and actions that we are taking are always in the best interests of our family and most importantly my son. Setting up the legacy with care, honesty and trust. Our brand is built on solid ground as we continue to trudge the road of happy destiny. We stand in solidarity with the great awakening that is taking shape across our lands. Truth and reconciliation is essential for all of us to learn and grow. Many across the country are beginning to wake up. Realizing that the history was built on crimes against humanity and genocide. That is the foundation of Canada. My efforts here are about reflecting this truth and looking for new plans of action moving forward. I’m fully dedicated to exposing everything I know and have learned. The future is in our hands and not that of the colonizer. I don’t identify as a Canadian, I identify as Anishanabe. It’s as plain and simple as that.
Title: Harmonizing the 3 folds of destiny - the past, present & future. 18 x 36 inches
The journey continues to unfold for us as we discover these perplexing realities and experiences and look for new ways with regard to finding our way through. I’m super blessed to be in these positions that I am in. I believe that taking the course of actions that I am, the understanding and knowledge I’ve acquired will be most valuable to everything that I’ve got going on. There are things unfolding behind the scenes that will soon become massive public knowledge and awareness. As they say, the truth will set you free. The past, present and future are indeed filled with so much understanding and promise. Im excited and have so much to reveal. These next few articles that I’ve got in development will paint the story for the world to see. All in due time.
Here are our latest designs being shared with our partners in Sea gods. These new paddle boards are stunning and I’m super excited to be able to share this new project. Having the ability to place my work in the hands of my fans and newcomers to my art is a fascinating process. I could easily make decisions to multiply myself in the corporate world but that’s not the path for me. It doesn’t turn me on. I prefer being hard to find and hard to get. Making limited editions and specialized collections. I’m not interested in the Canadian art gallery scene any longer. I don’t need it and personally find institutions to be cold, soulless and boring. I don’t chase fame or wanting to be a something in the art world. It’s a personal matter for me to be more hands on with my brand, skill level and talent. Sharing my work in more intimate settings and experiences.
Enjoy these latest releases here @ Jacobson native art and I look forward to so much more in the coming weeks and months ahead. We’ve got several new collections coming and our partnership with little giant productions will have an exciting new chapter as we unveil the new grand opening of our second gallery launch here in the Kootenay mountains of BC. Trailblazing new creative energy and building an exciting future with our collaboration. Sea gods has been a wonderful new addition to building these relationships and we are happy with these results. So please feel free to stay tuned with what we’ve got going on and I’m glad to see so many visitors coming to our sites and feeling inspired with what we bring to the circle. With that I thank you and indeed there will be much more to come…

Good morning to everyone and once again it’s a privilege to share with you all some new and exciting events taking shape for us here @ Jacobson native art. Ever since I first came out here it was my destiny to build our home and family out here. I scouted out this place the Kootenay’s and absolutely fell in love with the vibe. The potential I saw back then was a total breath of fresh air. I had been living in Vancouver for nearly 15 years straight before my visit in 2015. I knew then that the whole reasoning about coming here was for me to build this next chapter in my life. My son was born in Nelson so that officially makes him a kootenay boy. We love it out here and find daily inspiration. The magnitude and power of nature spirit is transformational on so many levels. With only a small sprinkle of human beings it’s the perfect setting for family growth and creative energy. Way less distractions and crazy people that you’ll find in every city.
Big changes no doubt and life moves at a gentle and genuine pace. The relationships that we’ve been able to build here have been pretty awesome. I bring a totally new creative energy that many here have never seen. It’s like a fresh start to something I’ve been mastering for 40 years now as an artist. To carve out a new voice and spirit here in the Kootenay’s has been really refreshing. I’m done with city life. Chasing those stupid carrots out there trying to be a something. You just realize that by being here, those things aren’t that important. In fact out here? They don’t mean anything. None of that will save you from a grizzly attack, or being mauled by a cougar. Or being in the crosshairs of an avalanche. Nature kind of strips all the colonial bullshit away. It’s a beautiful thing to be freed from those desires. From those kinda wants.

Things are moving along at a wonderful pace for me and my heart and spirit are joyful being here and having great people around me who want to create together for the benefit of all parties involved. The levels of honesty and transparency with these relationships is amazing. All my partners know exactly what’s up in my world. No secrets and no hiding. I think that’s why we work so well together. From my relationship with Kunze gallery and my incredible partnership with Little giant productions, we all have a solid foundation with one another. No bullshit or weirdness getting in the way. It’s solid gold energy.
So indeed I’m feeling really happy about this new and exciting energy and we’ve got some more news to share. As many of you know I did a partnership with Sea gods paddle boards out in White rock, BC. It’s been a phenomenal success and we just closed a new deal with them for 2 more designs for 2025 and 2026. I’m feeling inspired and overjoyed as I try to make decisions about my work regarding how I can place it into people’s hands, into situations of them becoming more intimate and involved with my art. The ability to play in water and go out and experience a beautiful adventure with these boards is super dope energy. The boards are all limited editions as well so it’s not mass produced. Looking forward to sharing more of that with Sea gods.
My fabric lines with northcottt fabrics are doing awesome and I’m getting to see so much creativity being produced out there it’s extraordinary and satisfying. From quilts, to clothing to wall hangings and footwear, it’s been a fascinating journey and the work being done by Quilts for survivors is phenomenal. I feel so privileged and honoured to be able to comfort residential school survivors through this initiative. Definitely one of the greatest highlights of my artistic career. Real meaningful work. The artistic journey is a deeply profound experience with many ups and downs but if you truly believe in yourself and what you do? It’s worth it. Even though the battles may be difficult and tragic sometimes we must continue to persevere and find our way through. Being an artist is like having a backstage pass to how it all works. Life itself is creative and it is in my opinion the original language.
THE FUTURE IS HERE. THE FUTURE IS WOODLAND A.I.
Woodland A.I. has been such a welcome new discovery for me and has no doubt given me new life, especially after all the fucked up darkness permeating throughout the current vibes of the woodland school of art. This new invention of mine not only inspires me deeply but bridges the gap between the past, present and future like no other creative process I’ve ever discovered. It’s incredible to be on the cutting edge of creative energy and power with this technology. I have definitely found my new voice with this art form and this new chapter will be my most important regarding my creative legacy. To be the first ever to do this feels pretty neat as well and most definitely separates me and defines me in my own light. I feel good about that. Woodland A.I. is definitely JACOBSON.
I’ve got 11 new image prompts being prepared for me and I can’t wait to finally get them this weekend. My business partner in Luc @little giant productions is a big part of getting the images prepped so that I can infuse them onto canvases. From there I prep them with colour backgrounds, design layouts and final paint applications. Coming up with indigenous art the world has never seen, that we only dreamed of doing. I mean, that’s how I truly feel about it. I see A.I. like my creative apprentice, it takes care of so much for me. It never whines or complains. It does what I tell it to do. And it usually gets it right better than I expected. It’s a brilliant edition to my creative process. So on that note we’ve got some exciting new things coming into manifestation and I look forward to sharing more as we continue to move forward. I’m grateful and thankful for all these wonderful new opportunities and creative paths. Life out here in the Kootenay mountains has been one of the greatest decisions of my entire life. I absolutely love it here.
With more to come, all my relations, Rainbow Thunderbird - MAJ ππ¦ π
