I have ambivalent thoughts and feelings about these stencils on the muscular fir beams in the lobby of Lake Quinault Lodge.

 

On the one hand, if one approaches them with academic detachment, they're interesting examples of how the dominant culture represents subalterns, which is as dangerous, exotic and not quite real.

 

Just as no real wolf ever looked anything like the red snarling beast on the left, the Native American on the other side is an exaggeration right out of the pages of Boys Own Paper. Cultural authenticity was not prioritized in selecting the Indian's attire or his activity.

 

On the other hand, the problem is that history is written (or stenciled) by the winners, and the result is neither kind nor accurate. Take, for example, the style employed in the artwork.

 

If the decorative scheme were being created today, the result might look nothing like this. Today, some 90 years after the lodge was built, the indigenous Northwest Coast style is seeing a renaissance. Instead of being an Arts-and-Crafts take on the denizens of the temperate rain forest, the stencils might be expressed in the twenty-first century's version of the vocabulary of local indigenous art, although that is a contested subject.*

 

For a number of reasons, I'm not suggesting that only Native American artists should be allowed to express Native American subjects. However, unless non-native artists demonstrate greater sensitivity in the handling of Native American imagery, essentialist claims to ownership of subject matter and artistic style (believe me, they're out there - see the story in the link below*) will gain greater appeal.

Supercar Fest The Runway - Sywell Aerodrome - 30th May 2021

I'm not sure what species of deer this is. I thought possibly red deer but can't confirm that. It was resting beneath the cyrpess trees next to the Sabine River behind a high fence. He stood up and starting walking when he realized I had spotted it. Bigger than our native white tail deer, very dark red color with nice antlers, but not huge as I would expect for a mature red stag. Also the black face and light colored tuft of hair on top of the head don't seem to match any of the species that I researched.

Anyway, this was on a private ranch that advertised exotic game hunts on the gate nearby.

Elk on a Exotic Ranch . This is not a drive through park, we were just on the back roads and came upon a bridge over a creek and all these elk where in it...They didn't stay long when I got there but long enough to pull off two shots...It has been very hot here and there where about 8 elk in total , mostly all were actually sitting in the creek , until I made my presence, after that they one by one got up and scampered off into the woods ..It took about 2 to 3 minutes for that to happen.I think they were enjoying the coolness of the sand in the creek bed...They made my day for sure

I am yours...

However distant you may be,

There blows no wind, but wafts your scent to me,

There sings no bird, but calls your name to me,

Each memory that has left its trace with me...

-Derek And The Dominos
