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

Don Yeomans
SOLDRed Cedar wood, Acrylic paint
24.5 x 36 x 2″ (each panel)
73.5 x 36 x 2″ (entire triptych)
“This is the second triptych I did for this show, and this time I chose a different approach. One giant figure across three boards. The design is an Eagle, using painted undulating formline. I used blue formline with red secondary, simply because it is one of my favourite colours.” – Don Yeomans

Deconstructed Eagle Panel
Don Yeomans
CA$15,000.00Yellow Cedar wood
“This is one of the first pieces I carved for this show. It was abstract, in the sense that the parts of the bird had been rearranged to fit the circle. The main idea was to showcase a new style of design, where I use what I call, ‘undulating formline’. Traditional design uses shapes called ovoids and u-shapes, which in themselves are complete elements. In this new style, my elements go under and over and through. My first drawing of this style came to me about 20 years ago. Only in recent years have I been able to carve it to the level I imagined it at.” – Don Yeomans
