“Secret Strength” ~ Thomas B. Maracle
$600.00
Secret Strength -He is always surprised when he hears that he is considered to have a secret strength which others don’t possess. When occasionally someone asks him about the source of his ability to remain composed in the face of any challenge his answer is always clear, always straightforward, and always the same. He is then surprised a second time when that which he shares with every single one of his inquirers is not immediately and fully adopted. He wonders what could be more natural than placing one’s complete trust in the love and the protection of the Creator come what may. When he looks at the intelligence and the beauty of creation, he can’t help but whole-heartedly place his life in the hands from which everything around him was formed. For him it’s as simple as this.

Thomas B. Maracle – Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory
Born in Belleville, Ontario in 1949, Thomas B. Maracle is an award-winning stone sculptor and musician as well as a successful entrepreneur. A Native North American Mohawk, he is a citizen of the Six Nations and lives on the Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory.
Thomas has been involved with Native art since his childhood and was deeply influenced by the combined skills of his artisan parents, who created arts and crafts for their Native gift store.
About his inspirational parents, whom Thomas credits for much of his success, he says, “My father, Andrew Maracle Sr., was an international lecturer and historian focussing on the folklore, culture, and customs of Native North Americans. My mother, Lillian Maracle, was a gifted artist with pencil and brush. With this combination of talents flowing in my veins, I have an inherent foundation on which to develop my own abilities as a sculptor.”
Native Renaissance, located near where he lives and creates, is the outcome of all of Thomas’s devotion to his Native culture and art. Its art gallery, which features Thomas’s outstanding and prolific creations, also includes original sculptures, paintings, and limited editions of other acclaimed North American Native artists.
The creations of Thomas are prized components of collections throughout Canada and many other parts of the world–including England, France, Germany, and the United States, just to name a few.
