Juliet&’;s Story: Juliet Mackie is a Metis artist with Cree, Gwich&&’;;in, and English heritage, rooted in Fort Chipewyan and Red River, and is a citizen of the Metis Nation of British Columbia. Based in Montreal, she draws inspiration from nature, her family, and Metis culture in her work as a painter and beader. Raised on Vancouver Island, Juliet learned beadwork from her grandmother, Greta, who shared stories of her life on the trapline. After attending a beadwork workshop in 2019 and using the craft as self-care during quarantine, Juliet founded Little Moon Creations. While her earrings reflect her personal style, they are deeply influenced by her grandmother&&’;;s traditional artwork. SBJM012505ARG
