Beaver Native Drawing

Monday, September 27th, 2010

#nativeamerican #beavers #native #art - Here is a Native beaver drawing called Beaver Legends by Noel Ducharme. Of course, I probably would have preferred such a drawing in colour rather than just black and white but that’s just my opinion. What about you?

Canadian Motivational Speaker Shows Native Art Collection

Sunday, September 26th, 2010

#art #nativeamerican #native #aboriginal #firstnations #diversity

Canadian motivational speaker Clint Cora has an online video show each week and in a recent episode of Clint Cora Motivational WebTV, he talked about how one can increase exposure to multicultural diversity through art. This is one of the ways that he had originally been turned onto the world of diversity and made him want to explore other cultures around him.

Clint got interested in some beautiful artwork of certain cultures and in turn, became interested in the cultures behind the art. This is why art is an excellent route to explore diversity. In addition to being a Canadian motivational speaker, Clint Cora is also a speaker on diversity now too.

Becoming well versed in diversity skills which help you in becoming effective with people from all sorts of cultures and diversity groups is now considered an important component in achieving success in today’s diverse environment. Art and food (as shown in a previous Clint Cora Motivational WebTV episode about Chinese food) are both effective and fun ways to increase diversity awareness.

In this Motivational WebTV episode, Canadian motivational speaker Clint Cora also takes you on a tour of some of the art in his personal collection at home which includes pieces from several different cultures. Here is the video below.

You will notice that he has quite a lot of Native Aboriginal and Inuit art in his collection as he’s huge fan of these genres of art. If you have never seen much of these types of cultural art before but are intrigued by their styles, you can be more exposed to them by visiting either a separate Native art Facebook page set up or of course this Native art blog. Clint Cora even offers two different ebooks on native art for free on those sites.

We hope you enjoy this episode and maybe it might spark an interest in ethnic art in you as well. Feel free to comment on this video as well as any of the artwork shown here. Just comment below or at the Canadian Motivational Speaker Facebook page where we hope you will hit the Like button.
