Painted Shirt Native Arts & Crafts - About Painted Shirt
Painted
Shirt Native Arts & Crafts is
a home based business located in
Edmonton, Alberta. First Nations
owned and operated, we provide a
unique service to the community.
We provide arts and crafts lessons
as well as sell arts and crafts locally
and internationally via our web site
and extensive contacts locally and
abroad.
We offer retail and wholesale creative arts and crafts in our local markets, craft shops, pow wows and trade shows and of course on our web site. We provide the ability for custom orders such as making pouches, doing bead work, making pow wow regalia as well as leather work.
We believe through our own experience and knowledge of what's out in the community that there is a lack of trained individuals in the arts and crafts field. Currently we provide craft lessons through aboriginal organizations. Most of the groups that we have provided lessons are family oriented who want to learn part of their native culture.
As part of being able to teach native arts and crafts, we want to provide a positive influence and develop an interest in youth to learn their culture.
As a young man Aaron Lee was taught to only work with a good heart and a good mind. "What we have in our hearts when we work goes into the finished piece and should never be done in a bad way". This teaching has stayed with him since he was taught that and as an instructor he teaches anyone whom he is instructing.
The work Aaron has done has gone all across the states and all parts of the world. Each piece of work has a guarantee of quality and will be replaced in cases of misuse, free of charge. This has always been one of the ways that our business promises of good quality and long lasting work.
