Haida and North West Coast
Art links

 





One of my true passions is my love of Haida and North West Coast Art.  Here are a few of the links to my favorite sites and places.
 


I must start with the best. Charles Edenshaw was the pioneer of classic Quality Haida art.  His work and quality has been duplicated by many.

Museum of Anthropology: UBC

The M of A has most of the totem poles taken from the village of Ninstints.  The museum has an extensive collection.  I highly recommend a visit.  Right now they have an Awsome collection of Charles Edenshaw artwork.  Bill Reid has numerous pieces in the collection at the museum.
I would love to be able to teach or help Native student's discover their art heritage. It is my intention to develop a jewelry program that would allow students to experiment with these art forms.
