Artist Statement

When I was a younger man, my Dad and I were looking down the Douglas Channel on the Haisla Territory. He pointed out a canoe shape in the mountains and told me around the time the sun falls into the canoe is the time the Oolicans run (find the canoe). So I dedicated this mural to that memory and the knowledge our fathers pass down to us.”
