When Vince Smith was a boy all he wanted to do was to paint and draw, and learn as much as he could from his brothers and sister. “I longed for the days when my brothers and sister would come home from Residential school so they could teach me everything they knew. I would watch my brothers, and then do what they did, and that is how I first learned how to draw.
