About the Cover … Ernie Bolieu, Native American Jewelry Designer

Ernie Bolieu, Native American Jewelry Designer

To celebrate Native American Heritage Month, we asked our friend Ann Gilbert at American Art Gallery to ask if her friend, Ernie Bolieu, would consider sitting for a portrait for our November cover.

When Ernie graciously accepted we called on local photographer, Jeremy Rodgers, to capture Ernie’s “essence.” And capture him, he did! 

Ernie, Jeremy, and his camera worked together effortlessly and the result was this stunning portrait. (We share more photos of Ernie on page 19 of this issue.) 

Once again, Richard Stephens, our long-time cover designer, put it all together for the excellent cover design and layout. 

Stop in at American Art Gallery, 724 Central Avenue, during Gallery Walk to meet Ernie and Ann, and to see his beautiful jewelry.

Special thanks to Ann, Ernie, Jeremy, and Richard for the joy this cover brings to us!
