Portfolio Example & Artist Statement
Salisha Old Bull

I create beadwork and regalia with traditional resources that include: two-needle beadwork, brain-tanned deer hide, wood, wool, brass tacks/beads, Czech seed beads, crystal beads, and shells. I construct the items with wood, nylon thread, and stabilizer. These items are inspired by my Bitterroot Salish and Crow tribal cultural heritage. I am inspired by the land and the values that create a sense of self-identity.
