“I love painting with oils, but have done less over the years, as it causes lung issues with me. I’ll only paint one or two oil paintings a year now. When I set out to paint this moon, I had in mind the idea to paint him as a Full Moon (heavy-set) with attitude, as if he were ‘full’ of himself, so he looks a bit smug.” – Trace Yeomans

you see seagulls.in this design, I am attempting to mediate between literacy and Coast Salish visual art. Hence the punning of the title “sEAGLES,” which is a way of making a visual pun, and making literacy visual. At the top and bottom of this design, there is the suggestion of the letter “s,” which simultanously forms the eagle wings while defining the seagull heads. So visual punning is created through both the painted design and the title of this piece.

Beaver Swimming

The Beaver appears in Northwest mythology and is a family crest in many regions throughout the Northwest Coast. According to legend, the first Beaver was a woman, whose husband frequently went on long hunting and fishing trips. In his absence, his lonely wife took solace swimming, enlarging her pond with a dam and building her own water dwelling. Eventually, she transformed into a Beaver and their children were Beaver People, founding the Beaver lineage.
In mythology, they are often associated with the powerful undersea supernatural beings and the magic Giant Beaver can cause natural disaster with one slap of its wide, strong tail. Characterisically, the Beaver is known to keep to himself and cares little for the activities of the humans, except when they are directly affected. Thus, they often give wise advice so it is important to listen when they do decide to speak.

Empty Nest
Trace Yeomans
CA$6,000.00Oil paint on Canvas
2022
Unframed
“I started painting this piece a few years ago. The idea came to me while I was sitting and thinking about how quiet it was the day after my youngest child left home. I felt a bit lost.
It was the first of many paintings I did that year. There are many hours of intricate twig detail but at the time, I was relieved to focus my attention on painting rather than being sad and missing my kids. This was one of the most time-consuming oil paintings I have ever attempted and took the longest to complete. Through it, I felt I regained my freedom to be creative and found myself in my art again.
The nest sits empty with complex twigs intertwining with each other. They represent all that I am as a mother intertwined with hope, worry, pride, sadness, and happiness for my kids. I’ve added a ghostly white Haida Raven overlooking the empty nest to represent myself.” – Trace Yeomans

Eagles with Salmon Toilet Paper Dispenser
Trace Yeomans
CA$7,000.00Ultrasuede, Douglas Fir wood, Yellow Cedar wood, Acrylic paint
25.5 x 6 x 11.25″ (rolled, including stand)
144 x 4″ (unfurled, without stand)
“This was a piece that came to mind during the ‘toilet paper panic’ during the early stages of this pandemic. I thought it was peculiar that people were lined up and panicked about buying toilet paper, sanitizer, and masks rather than food and water. I wanted to create a modern looking, free standing art piece that – like the masks I created – would be emblematic of the times we are in, but would also hold the traditional aspects of my culture…I felt that this piece would be something that the whole world could relate to and understand, even if they know nothing about Haida art.” – Trace Yeomans

Raven Paddle
Trace Yeomans
CA$6,000.00Yellow Cedar wood, Acrylic paint
“I had never painted a paddle before this one. I wanted to try something that was bold, modern, and eye-catching, but still traditional in the Haida design sense, so I chose black and red that together reads a bit electric.” – Trace Yeomans
