Elizabeth Buller Page
Elizabeth is a member of the Mistawasis First Nation in Saskatchewan. Her Plains Cree and Metis heritage are the creative foundation of her work.
Four Sky Thunder was Elizabeth’s great great grandfather. He was a counsellor and medicine man in Big Bear’s tribe. Four Sky Thunder burned down the Roman Catholic church in Frog Lake during the 1885 conflict. He was imprisoned in Stoney Mountain Penitentiary. Elizabeth’s grandfather James Solomon Buller was born on the Sweetgrass Reserve. He was a survivor of the Indian Industrial School in North Battleford. James married Rosina Demarais Campbell, a Saskatchewan Metis. Rosina enjoyed making beaded jewelry, clothing, ornaments, and other crafts.
Elizabeth’s grandparents passed on to their family some of the language, artistic traditions and storytelling of the Plains Cree.
Elizabeth's art cards illustrate Cree syllabics, beadwork patterns, and tattoo symbols like those drawn by Four Sky Thunder. Her jewelry and wire designs often feature the Medicine Wheel and the Tree of Life. The circle of the Medicine Wheel symbolizes spiritual and physical healing. The Tree of Life, known to many cultures, connects all forms of creation.
Elizabeth has been employed in a First Nations art gallery, the hospitality industry, and corporate sales across Canada. Her work is shown in galleries in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan. She currently lives in Calgary.
Elizabeth is grateful to her family for their inspiration and support.
