Nathan Meguinis has done several murals across the city, he takes much pride in his work which has an amazing impact on his art.
Artist, Illustrator, Powwow Dancer, YellowHand, Stick Man, and Protector. His artwork illustrates the proud roots of Tsuut’ina culture with vivid colours and creatures that are prominent to the Tsuut’ina culture.
A big accomplishment in his artistic career was being part of the BUMP, which is where artists create street art, and people come from all over to see it. While it is fun it also takes a lot of hard work and dedication. He has had the amazing opportunity to take part twice and is hoping to be invited again.
Nathan Meguinis is also known as Buffalo Boy, Traveling Rock. He is well known for his art but he is more than that a good friend and a kind man and a person you can count on.
