Page 1 of 12 The Spanish Bible Which one should you use: 1602,1865,1909,1960? There is a lot of confusion today about which Spanish Bible should be used. Most Bible believing churches have heard mainly about four different Spanish versions of the Reina-Valera: the 1602, 1865, 1909 and 1960—even though there are many other versions. Which of these Spanish Bibles is correct? Which Spanish Bible should all Spanish speaking people and ministries use? Which Spanish Bible is true to the Textus Receptus and Masoretic texts —the source of our blessed King James Bible? As Barry Burton said: “Let's weigh the

The Artist:Donny Varnell

Donny Varnellis a Ketchikan carver whose early pieces were “a juxtaposition of art and culture” where he explored his Haida and Caucasian heritage.“There were so many good artists in my family I easily found people I could apprentice with and learn from,” he says.

Varnell likes to push the limits of woodcarving. He explores other media such as wax and clay looking for techniques that might be used in woodcarving, much like Haida carvers explored argillite in the1800s.

Varnell gets ideas for his art from museums, music,TV, books, other artists and friends.“I like pulling directly from the masters, but not doing it in exactly the same way. I like to put a spin on ideas, to make it personal.” He enjoys the freedom of creating ar tfor his own satisfaction while also making a living.

The history of Haida and Northwest Coast design also influences Varnell’s work. Haida design, according toVarnell, changed due

to the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC)Totem Restoration Project from1939 to1953. Over 200 Alaska Native carvers and laborers restored and replicated totem poles in Southeast Alaska, bringing new ideas and images to the art form. Later, carvers like Bill Holm and Bill Reid went back to the older, original pieces and reconstructed the rules of classical formline design. Beginning in the 1970sthe non-classical CCC poles were replaced by more classical ones.

Varnell says:“…the CCC taught even shipwrights to make totem poles.They did the best they could, but there were many depar- tures from the classical formline design. Perhaps I am trying to pay homage to that [non-classical CCC] history by messing around with the secondary forms.”

Donny Varnellwas born in1973 in Ketchikan and raised in Alaska, Seattle and Oregon. His grandmother is Dolores Churchill, a Haida master weaver of baskets, hats, robes, and other regalia, who taught him weaving at an early age. He is the great grandson of the late Selina Peratrovich of the Haida Nation who was a world- renowned traditional cedar bark basket weaver.

He studied visual art at the University of Alaska Fairbanks and apprenticed under Haida carver Reggie Davidson in British Columbia and under his maternal aunt, Holly Churchill of Ketchikan, a cedar bark basket weaver.He was the resident carver at the Edwin DeWitt Carving Center in Saxman and has worked on totem poles under the supervision of carver Nathan Jackson. His work has been exhibited and collected around the world. He currently lives and works in Ketchikan,Alaska.

The Artwork:Self-Portrait 1996-1997 58x38x2inches•2003•red cedar, acrylic paint, leather•Alaska State Museum Collection

A carved chest in the beaver design at his grandmother’s house inspired DonnyVarnell’s relief panel carved as a self-portrait. He began with classic formline design using black line primaries and red line secondaries. He “tweaked” the design with classic ovoids reshaped to create multiple eyes. He balanced the weight and negative spaces on the top and the bottom.

In Northwest Coast art certain features help identify the beaver design and include ears, rounded nostrils, two large incisor teeth and a tail.The bottom area of the panel is draped with a leather cover and, when lifted, reveals the artist’s internal organs.“I had a serious illness and abdominal surgery in1997, and the carved area under the leather shows this,” saysVarnell.

The panel is in the Alaska State Museum Collection.When asked why the museum collected this artwork, Steve Henrikson, Curator of Collections, said,“Alaska Native arts are living and evolving and this piece riffs on a traditional Northwest Coast Native bentwood

We were able to acquire this piece through a grant from the Rasmuson Foundation, which supports art acquisitions by museums all across the state.”

Donny Varnellsays, “Timewill tell if my work is accepted by my peers, if I am seen as a Northwest Haida artist. One hundred years from now, I may not be known, but if others see my work and get inspiration, that will be great.”

Responding toArtwork

Standing in front of a carving by a master can take your breath away. Seeing “real art” is one of the great visual highlights in life – and one that we don’t often have the opportunity to experience. Closely viewing a reproduction is different than seeing the real thing but is a creative, useful teaching tool.

Stimulate student discussion and understanding by asking questions about the imageSelf-Portrait, 1996-1997before providing details. Encourage students to express as many different ideas as they can. Record their ideas. See if students generate new ideas or change their opinions after learning more about the artist DonnyVarnell and his work. (See Artist and Artwork section for details.)

l l l l l l l

Do you like this image? Why or why not? Who is the artist? (Donny Varnell) What is the name of this image? (Self-Portrait, 1996 -1997) How big is this object? (58 x 38 x 2inches) When was it made? (2003) What is it made of? (red cedar, acrylic paint, leather) Where is the real artwork? (Alaska State Museum)

Describe Ask students questions that allow them to describe what they see. Encourage responses based on what one actually sees, rather than what one feels. If you can point to it you can see it. (Elements of Art: color, shape, line, texture, pattern)

s s s s s s s

What do you see? How many colors do you see? Which color do you notice first? Second? Describe the kinds of lines you see. Describe the shapes: are they geometric, organic, natural? What patterns to you see? If you were to touch the artwork, what would it feel like? What materials did the artist use? How was this artwork made?

Analyze Discuss how the artist arranged the elements of art to give the artwork meaning and expression. (Principles of Art: emphasis, balance, unity, variety, rhythm/movement)

s s s s s s s

What seems like the most important part of the artwork? What catches your eye when you first look at the artwork? Is the artwork symmetrical? Are the right side and the left side the same? Different? How is the artwork organized? Do some areas look heavier? Lighter? What are the dominant elements (or objects) in the composition? What objects, shapes or colors are repeated?

“ are challenging and broadening the The contemporary artists of today perception of Northwest Coast art…. The next generation of artists will continue to use the traditional skills that have been passed on from their ancestors, but will adapt to their modern culture – John Brent Bennett superimposing Haida designs on photographs and DonVarnell combining pop culture with Northwest Coast designs.”

Chief Wiah wrote,“I am confident that in the hands of our young artists we shall continue giving the world our unique form of art.”

Interpret & Judge We all bring different background knowledge and experiences to the works of art we are viewing.This helps to inform our judgments and allows us to form ideas of taste about what we like and don’t like. It helps us understand individual works of art, and how we view art in general. n Have you ever seen artwork like this before? n Do you know which cultures made work like this? What other things does this artwork remind you of? n How does the artwork make you feel? n What does that mean?The artist called this a “self-portrait.” n What do you think the artist is trying say?

Activities

Folded Symmetric Design:Fold a sheet of plain white paper in half. Open it up and make a design or pattern using red and black paint on just one side. Fold the paper again, pressing evenly over the paper with your hand, to allow the painted side to be transferred to the unpainted side. Open the paper and allow it to dry.Add lines and ovoid shapes to create a simple symmetric design.

Self-portraits:Ar tistsuse self-portraits to tell us about them- selves. Whatinformation does this piece tell you about the artist? What can you guess about the culture of this artist? What is your culture? How would you describe it? What places or objects would tell someone about you? After discussing the self-portrait, ask students to draw a self-portrait that includes clues about their lives and cultures. Share the drawings in a classroom or school gallery for observation and discussion.
