~ This painting was previously owned by Mr. Michael Moniz, Art Director for 'Avalon Treasure', eBay Vendor *avalon* and it is currently part of Ugo Matulić a.k.a. Spirit Walker's Private Collection (Calgary, Alberta).
-
Along with professional appraisal work done by Maslak Mcleod Gallery in Toronto Ontario by Mr. Joseph McLeod a member of the Canadian Public Appraisers. Further forensic work was conducted and found proof positive for the signature painted in black paint on the verso of 'SACRED MEDICINE BEAR' dated 1979 by Mr. Brian Lindblom of 'The Document Examination Consultants Inc.'.
-
The 'Document Examination Consultants Inc.' are noted for their forensic expertise and called upon by various law enforcement agencies such as the RCMP to conduct forensic examinations to be used in a court of law. Go to "Personnel" section of their website to access PDF version of Mr. Brian Lindblom's CV.
-
This type of work is forensics at it's best and is quite costly to employ. This kind of examination was done under the eye of un-biased professional scrutiny.
-
The forensics work can only be conducted using many publicly known signature and writing sample specimens of Norval Morrisseua's signature as it is found on prints, personal letters and publicly known artwork created by Norval Morrisseau.
-
All specimens of writing archived by the examiners were used in determining the author of the signature and title painted on the verso of 'Sacred Medicine Bear'.
-
A positive Identification of the signature was made and determined that it was done by the hand of 'Norval Morrisseau' Canadian Woodland Artist through a multiple point grade system.
The painting 'Sacred Medicine Wheel' can be sourced back to Khan's auction house sold by Mr. Randy Potter (auctioneer) to Mr. Michael Moniz.
-
Two paintings once owned by Mr. Joseph Otavnik were also examined by the document examiners and three paintings in Mr. Michael Moniz's collection: Father and Son, 1977; Sacred Medicine Wheel, 1975 and Sacred Medicine Bear, 1979 featured in this article. These five paintings were found to have positive signature identifications authored by the brush of Norval Morrisseau.
-
Forensic work was also employed by Mr. Jim White who is an art dealer from Toronto on six paintings he had examined by the same forensic firm 'The Document Examination Consultants Inc.' years ago. Mr. Joseph Otavnik and Mr. Michael Moniz have used the same firm for a forensic signature evaluation of the paintings from their collections. The six paintings owned by Mr. Jim White came back also with proof positive signatures painted on the verso of each piece authored by Norval Morrisseau.
-
All of these paintings including 'Sacred Medicine Bear' came from Randy Potter's auction house and through Mr. David Voss a Thunder Bay collector. One can link themselves into Mr. Otavnik's case at www.norvalmorrisseaulawsuit.com for an in depth exploration of this man's case of Otavnik vs Vadas SC 07-51428-00 and see for yourself the importance and power of forensic science.
