\"BeginAtPodium\"<\/a>

Clarissa begins her presentation on the design and weaving of her latest Chilkat robe “Resilience” to the members of the Native American Arts Council at the Portland Art Museum<\/p><\/div>\n

Many, many years ago, if you asked me to get in front of other people and talk about whatever, no matter what size the audience, and no matter if the speech would be in front of my family and relatives, I would freak out.\u00a0 No one nowadays,\u00a0 believes me when I tell them of my once-upon-a-time fear and shyness; — especially not those who were at any of my four presentations at the Portland Art Museum this past weekend of December 5th through the 8th, in Portland, Oregon.<\/p>\n

\"DefinitionOfRobe\"<\/a>

Clarissa explains the meaning of every design element in the robe<\/p><\/div>\n

Audience feedback tells me that I am a fantastic storyteller at heart, a natural-born comedian, an up-and-coming philanthropist,\u00a0 a content and yet passionate, visual artist.\u00a0 Interesting feedback…things I don’t really define as me though obviously those outside of me experience me on the contrary of what me believes about me.\u00a0 I guess I APPEAR to others\u00a0 to be those things I have yet to add to my list of how I define myself.\u00a0 My personal experience of myself is passion and inspiration.\u00a0 I feel passionate about my work; in fact I am inspired by my own work.\u00a0 My latest Chilkat robe which is now in the permanent collection of the Portland Art Museum was, and continues to be, an inspiration.<\/p>\n

\"FullView2\"<\/a>

Clarissa tells another tale about the making of “Resilience”<\/p><\/div>\n

With every art piece I design and create, no matter what medium, I strive to “out-do” the last piece of that particular medium.\u00a0 I compete with myself; I have experienced this is where true, fulfilling competition lay.<\/p>\n

Thank you to all of you I met during my 4-day stay in Portland, especially the members of the Native American Arts Council at P.A.M.\u00a0 Thank you to Deana Dartt who worked hard on acquiring this robe for PAM’s permanent collection.\u00a0 And thank you to Beverly Terry who sponsored the making of the “Resilience” Chilkat robe!<\/p>\n
