Patrick DesJarlait
Patrick DesJarlait, Sr. (1921–1972) was an Ojibwe artist and a member of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians. Known for his watercolor paintings, DesJarlait created roughly 300 artworks during his lifetime. DesJarlait’s art represents an early diversion from the Studio School style that developed at the Santa Fe Indian School and was popular during the first half of the twentieth century. His paintings are known for their tactile brushwork, abstraction of figures and places, and subject matter specific to Ojibwe peoples. Early life Born to Solomon DesJarlait and Elizabeth Blake DesJarlait, Patrick DesJarlait was the fourth of seven children. He spent the majority of his childhood on the Red Lake Reservation. In a 1971 interview, DesJarlait positively recalled his rural childhood, including seasonal events and his favorite pastimes. He was temporarily blinded by trachoma at age five, but avidly pursued drawing after his full recovery. His mother died when he was seven years ...

People From Red Lake County, Minnesota
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of per ...

Georges Seurat
Georges Pierre Seurat ( , , ; 2 December 1859 – 29 March 1891) was a French post-Impressionist artist. He devised the painting techniques known as chromoluminarism and pointillism and used conté crayon for drawings on paper with a rough surface. Seurat's artistic personality combined qualities that are usually thought of as opposed and incompatible: on the one hand, his extreme and delicate sensibility, on the other, a passion for logical abstraction and an almost mathematical precision of mind. His large-scale work ''A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte'' (1884–1886) altered the direction of modern art by initiating Neo-Impressionism, and is one of the icons of late 19th-century painting. Biography Family and education Seurat was born on 2 December 1859 in Paris, at 60 rue de Bondy (now rue René Boulanger). The Seurat family moved to 136 boulevard de Magenta (now 110 boulevard de Magenta) in 1862 or 1863.Seurat: p. 16 His father, Antoine Chrysostome ...
