John Marshall was born in Minnesota; he is a self-taught beadwork and leatherwork artist with 12 years of experience crafting intricate, soulful pieces that tell stories through texture, tradition, and technique. A journey into leather and beadwork began as a personal exploration of creative expression which he now wishes to share with others. Drawing inspiration from nature and indigenous traditions he invites others to reconnect with the beauty of handmade art and the stories that live within our hands.
