The newest Inspired Native Artist, Sarah Agaton Howes, is being featured in Native Max Magazine. The interview discusses Howes' Ojibwe Floral Art background and the beautiful new line created along with the Eighth Generation Company.
What began as making moccasins has become a beautiful new product line. The collaboration between Louie Gong and the Inspired Natives Project has launched the first Ojibwe Floral hand painted phone cases and earrings. These new and innovative designs are bringing our traditional aesthetic to your hands and ears.
Rock real Native Design!!

The Woodlands area tribes specialize in "Floral" beadwork designs.
Anishinaabeg (also commonly called Ojibwe) have always adorned our lives with the beauty around us. However, during the time when our traditional medicines were outlawed, demonized, and silenced elders say the teachings of our medicines were passed along using floral.
As Native people we have adapted our arts, lifeways, and aesthetic to pass along our health and knowledge. Our beadwork on the Mashkimod (Bandolier) bags often reflects this tradition and they often have a special pocket for medicine.
