“As a long time collector of works by Norval Morrisseau (since the late 1980’s) I would like to say how much I enjoy the in-depth profile of the artist, Norval Morrisseau featured on Ugo Matulić’s (Spirit Walker) Norval Morrisseau Blog.
-
Because of his noble pursuit of the artist’s legend, I granted Spirit Walker permission to use the images and quotes from my book, 'My Year with Norval Morrisseau'. This was the first time I agreed to share these words and images - my small contribution to assist Spirit Walker in his quest to venerate Norval, his life and body of work.

-
Mr. Matulić is also attempting to clarify some of the market confusion with regard to the question of authenticity surrounding some of the artist’s creations.

-
Mr. Matulić is presenting to all, especially Morrisseau enthusiasts and collectors, a perspective that would be lost if not for his continual devotion and seeking of truths with regard to Norval’s life and work.

-
I endorse Spirit Walker, his efforts, his determination, his Norval Morrisseau Blog, and hope his good intentions will prevail.”
