Native American Cree Original ''Listening'' by Garnet Toracco, 1993, Cree Nation, framed, under glass, and nicely matted, Garnett Tobacco was born on February 6th, 1964 in The Pas, Manitoba that is a short distance from Winnipeg. His tribal affiliation is Cree and he takes the Buffalo as his family crest symbol. Garnet has been painting for over twenty years and occasionally embarks on carving soapstone. Fluid lines, soft earthy tones in a simplistic background are all characteristics that have attracted many collectors to this Cree art form. The animals that are depicted are those common to the plains region such as bison, herons, eagles, and hawks. Garnett is a prolific artist who only creates original works. Visual measures approx. 9 3/8'' x 4.75''.
