Marcus Gosse is a Mi'kmaq/Newfoundland artist with roots in the St. George's Native Band in Western Newfoundland. His passion for the Mi'kmaq culture and heritage has led him to spend many hours researching their artistic motifs and styles which he transforms into unique and vibrant images in watercolour, acrylics and oils. Marcus is currently the fine arts teacher at the Indian Brook First Nations school in Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia. His most recent piece, shown below, has been accepted for exhibition by the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia.

	Seeking Mi'kmaq Enlightenment The moose in the print is in search of more Mi'kmaq wisdom and enlightenment. Although, my family crest (Benoit) is represented by the eagle, I use the moose to represent my spiritual journey. In addition, I use Mi'kmaq petroglyphs(example: animals, floral designs, and Mi'kmaq motifs) from the Nova Scotia Museum to give my art more joy, pride, and authenticity. Marcus Gosse
