A pencil drawing on a single-sided, vertically oriented, piece of white paper. On the front-side is a hand-drawn image of a bear standing upright. The bear's mouth is open, the length of the claws on the front and hind paws are exaggerated, and the exterior of the bear's body is covered in fur while the interior of the body is decorated with criss-cross patterns, ovoids, and tower-shapes. The bear's back is against a coniferous tree. A single fish is drawn to the left of the bear's hind legs. The fish's body is decorated with a stripe pattern with dots centred between the stripes. The artist's signature, a "M" with a line drawn through it and two dots, is in the bottom right corner of the bookmark. The reverse-side of the bookmark is blank.
A drawing on a white bookmark. The front-side is a vertically oriented and hand-drawn image of killer whale and a lightning serpent(?). The killer whale has an exaggerated dorsal fin decorated with an eye-shape(?) at the top, an elongated diamond-shape in the middle, and a crisscross pattern towards the base of the fin; the body of the killer whale is decorated with similar patterns. Two human skulls are also drawn on the whale's body, one directly under the head and the other towards the tail. The tail flukes are both decorated with an unshaded ovoid, two unshaded circles, and an arch with an inner tower-shape. A blowhole in front of the dorsal fin releases air. The lightning serpent(?) is drawn upside-down in the top right corner of the bookmark; its body is decorated with a crisscross pattern. The reverse-side of the bookmark displays an illustrated woman cradling a baby; below is the book title "Love You Forever," and the names of the authors and the publishing company.
A drawing on a halved Canada Post envelope. On the front-side is a profile drawing of a human-like being in black pen ink, and yellow and grey pencil. The side of the head is speckled with small black dots. Extending from the top of the forehead to the base of the head is thin black and grey coloured hair. Their left ear is pierced and the forehead is shaded in with black pen and yellow pencil. The words, "But Dolly my name is Saautuu honestly, my Dad named me that," are written in black ink in a speech bubble positioned near the forehead. The eye-brow ridge is exaggerated and is decorated with layers of dashed lines. Below the eye-brow the eye is enclosed by an elongated and lopsided diamond-shape. The cheekbone is accentuated by a curling black line that morphs into the nose. Rounded teeth line the upper jaw of the open mouth. The chin is coloured with black pen and yellow pencil. Below the chin is the remainder of the plastic film window of the envelope. On the reverse-side, the Canada Post stamp is machine-printed in black ink; "9500 9800 A" is handwritten upside-down above the stamp in black pen. Along the bottom edge, opposite the stamp, is a barcode printed in light orange ink.
