"As the sun begins to rise, I thank the Creator for another beautiful day. I don't smudge everyday but when I do I thank him for my sobriety. Most of all I give thanks for the gift I have as an artist. Smudging is important to the First Nations people. It is a way of cleansing and a way of healing. The traditions of my people have helped me get my life back on track."
