Celebrated painter, Mark Anthony Jacobson was born to an Ojibway mother of the Eabametoong First Nation and Swedish father in Sioux Lookout Ontario. Thematically, his work reflects the Ojibway cultural beliefin the interconnected world of beings, the transformative nature of reality and the Spirit inherent in that connectivity. It also mirrors a belief in the Creator and the healing power of color and beauty. Mark's latest collection, Sacred Earth, is an amalgamation of his works that embrace the profound beauty of Ojibway culture through the originality and mastery of his work. 

Sacred Earth includes two stunning panels. The first panel features looms against the moon with the water below filled with fish and turtles while the second panel includes blocks that can be deconstructed and reconstructed to create something totally new or used as is. Additionally, there are coordinates featuring loons, turtles, and pebbles. A palette of vibrant hues in cool warm contrast featuring blue, green, orange and yellow characterize the collection.
