Eagle Feast Dish
Garner Moody
CA$9,200.00Yellow Cedar wood
A ceremonial dish, also known as a feast dish or potlatch dish, was a treasured heirloom which families brought out for great feasts as a gesture of hospitality and welcoming. Presently, many ceremonial dishes are carved in miniature form, meant for collectors who appreciate the historic and symbolic value behind each artwork. This aspect of the art is considered to be a contemporary turn that northwest coast native art has taken throughout the years.
Garner began carving at the early age of nine and, by age fifteen, he was carving his first piece of argillite. After moving to Vancouver in 1987, he spent the next two years working with renowned Haida artist Bill Reid on his Lootaas canoe and alongside a host of accomplished carvers such as Alfred Collinson, Rufus Moody, Giitsxaa, Nelson Cross, and Ding (Melvin) Hutchingson. Moody works in various mediums including cedar, gold, argillite and paper – all exemplifying his exquisite attention to detail and extraordinary artistic skills.

Karmic Frog & Raven Mask
Don Yeomans
CA$24,000.00Alder wood, Acrylic paint
“Frogs have appeared in my work for many years, portrayed as secondary characters accompanying Ravens and Eagles and Bears. Many times, Frogs are depicted in the mouths of the larger character.
In this mask, I again portray a Frog, only this time, he is not the helpless victim of a larger predator. Raven is in fact the meal of choice for this Frog, as I make up for decades of representing the Frog as a secondary figure.” – Don Yeomans

White Dogfish Mask
Don Yeomans
CA$22,000.00Alder wood, Horse hair, Acrylic paint
25 x 13 x 5″ (including hair)
17 x 11 x 5″ (mask only)
“[This mask is] carved from alder wood, decorated with white horse hair, and painted with white acrylic. This is a fairly traditional depiction of a Dogfish – the main difference here is the monochromatic paint job.
If the mask has a lot of strong lines, I feel like less is more when it comes to paint. White as a colour accentuates light and shadow in addition to allowing any mask to look more modern.” – Don Yeomans

Chilkat Thunderbird Panel
Don Yeomans
CA$16,500.00Yellow Cedar wood, Acrylic paint
“I began designing Chilkat-style carvings in around 2005. At the time, they served two purposes: Firstly, the style is derived from Chilkat blankets, which I admire greatly. Secondly, the sources of wood at the time were giving carvers very colourful boards. [They were] still good carving material, but too much power to the wood – like carving a beautiful laminated cutting board, in that no matter what you carved, the light and dark stripes of the wood are all you see. This board had a lot of colourful pieces of wood, so I had to show it who was boss!” – Don Yeomans
