Karen Cattel is a special artist and her whimsical art looks great on the two sturdy totes I purchased. One is a gift for a friend and the other is for me. I love them.

I so appreciate being able to have this old-fashioned outdoor dinner scene on a tote bag. It is adorable. Thank you for making it available.

I noted that the color came out differently on this size of bag, it is distinctly more purple. I happen to love that color also--the larger size has perfect color, exactly like the photo. I love both of my bags.

Quite beautiful!
This piece is titled "Ga-Be-Nah-Gewn-Wonce. I wanted to commemorate the life of Ga-Be-Nah-Gwey-Wence - translated into English as "Sloughing Flesh", "Wrinkle Meat", or Old "Wrinkled Meat" also known as "John Smith" who purportedly died at the age of 140 years. He was a Chippewa Indian who lived in the Cass Lake (Minnesota). I am drawing Ga-Be-Nah-Gwey-Wence just below an eagle in charcoal black and white. The eagle represents love (Zaagidwin) and is the first of my seven grandfather teachings series. The eagle that represents love because he has the strength to carry all the teachings, just as Ga-Be-Nah-Gwey-Wence had the strength to carry all his teachings through 140 years of his life.
The story of his life can be read about here:

In the beautiful city of Big Rapids Michigan tucked away in my studio is where you will find me creating. I am a traditionally, cultured Native American Fine Artist who draws inspiration from the history within the tribes. I truly enjoy working with oils, watercolors, charcoals, and pastels.
