Anthony Rivera

Anthony Rivera | Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe | Anthony started drawing as soon as he could hold a pencil. Beadwork and sewing came later in his early teens. Anthony’s work starts from a vision, he then captures it in a sketch. Inspiration comes from his Anishinaabe culture, from colorful florals to warm colors of the earth. He draws inspiration from all shapes and forms of life.
