Three tree trunks incised with geometric symbols.
In northern Fennoscandia, Scots pine trees were often incised with markings of cultural significance to the Indigenous Sámi.
Under threat from forestry, their documentation and protection is vital to the preservation of Sámi heritage #SamiNationalDay

Sámi archaeology for #SamiNationalDay
Trees were seen by the Sámi as mediators between people and deities, and were likely engraved with crosses whilst offerings were made. Intensive forestry is destroying culturally modified trees at an alarming rate.

A watercolor and gouache painting of a reindeer standing before the Sámi flag. There are cloudberries/arctic berries growing on the foreground. The ground is covered in snow and there are two reindeer hoof prints. The border is painted with a shiny pale gold paint.
I happen to share my birthday with the #saminationalday #samipeoplesday - which is a very cool fact imo - and wanted to draw a celebratory art piece for this occasion.
So, happy Sámi National Day to anyone who celebrates!
