Description

This piece is comprised of a large carving of a man with logging equipment, along with a First Nations figure, and an eagle above them highlighting the heritage of the Squamish region.

Artist Glenn Greensides has made his living from the bi-products of the forest industry for over two decades. His smaller works have adorned people’s homes around the world and his larger works have become attractions as on site demonstrations at resorts, lodges, and exhibitions.

For many years Glenn focused mainly on large scale heritage themed projects, each consisting of several monumental sculptures. However in 2007, Glenn transferred his attention back to smaller sculptures which made ideal souvenirs for travellers.
