Morley Kakepetum - Native Artist


"Untitled" Copyright Morley Kakepetum 1993
Kakepetum, Morley, 1936-, (Thunder Bay Art Gallery)

I was gifted this painting by Morley Kakepetum by a friend of Debbies. When she heard of my interest in native art, she shared here collection with us. Deb got a Limited Edition print, also by Morley Kakepetum. Morley is well known in his geographic region and many of his paintings are on the wall at Cat Island Lodge near Ear Falls.
