Christina&’;s Story: Christina Stonefish is of Lunaape & Anishinaabe decent, raised on the Moravian of the Thames-Delaware Nation Reservation. In 2008, Christina moved to Ontario, Canada to complete her Bachelor of Business Studies at the University of Windsor. Her hand drawn designs are heavily influenced by nature, a place she spent most as a child. Christina loves the outdoors as it&’;s a way of connecting with her culture and ancestors. At the age of 10, her grandmother taught her traditional crafts like, dreamcatchers, beaded bracelets and more. Today Christina is a talented artisan that specializes in handcrafted moccasins, jewelry, and artwork. “You&’;ve heard the saying “beading is medicine”, well it really is! I use that time to express myself artistically and mentally unwind from a long day.” SBCST122406ARG
