Patrick Hunter

Patrick Hunter is a 2Spirit, Ojibwe artist, graphic designer and award winning entrepreneur from Red Lake, Ontario. Though best known for his woodland art style paintings, Patrick has also had a positive and impactful impression in the corporate world through collaborations with Indspire, Giant Tiger, Staples, Ontario Power Generation, Hyundai and Nelson Publishing 

The intention that drives the work Patrick does stems from how a better world can be created through art, so future generations can see themselves reflected in mainstream culture. With that in mind, Patrick has engaged the world of sports with artistic collaborations with the Chicago Blackhawks, creating the uniforms for the Canadian Olympic curling team, as well as APTN’s new Bryan Trottier award for Indigenous excellence in the NHL. 

When not collaborating with exciting national partners, Patrick is creating awareness about his Ojibwe roots and inspiring creative confidence through in-person and virtual paint workshops across North America. 

RiksWork

Aaniin [Hello], my name is Rikki Singleton, and I am an urban Indigenous artist from the Migisi Sahgaigan [Eagle Lake] First Nation in Treaty 3 Territory, currently based in Milton, Ontario. I am the founder of RiksWorks, a small business where I share my passion for beadwork and Indigenous artistry. As an Ojibway and Cree artist, my work is deeply rooted in my heritage and the stories that connect me to my community.

Beadwork has been a transformative journey for me, one that blends tradition with personal expression. Starting my business has not only allowed me to share my craft, but it has also introduced me to a vibrant network of individuals who inspire and uplift me every day. Through RiksWorks, I aim to bring beauty, culture, and positivity to the world.

I am grateful for the opportunity to connect with others through my art and encourage you to join me on my journey by following along on social media at @RiksWorks.

Tendesi Woodwork

Lance Cote-Tenasco is a proud member of the Algonquin Anishinabeg community of Kitigan Zibi, located in Quebec, and the owner and operator of Tendesi Woodwork.

A carpenter by trade, Lance developed a passion for woodwork art. His creative focus is centered on cedar, carefully harvested from Algonquin Traditional Territory. Cedar holds deep cultural and spiritual significance for the Anishinabe people, as it is one of the Four Sacred Medicines, known for its protective and healing properties.

Lance draws on his experiences on the land to bring to life powerful elements in his artwork—sunrises, sunsets, water, fire, and the Four Sacred Colours—imagery that has been embedded in his teachings since childhood
