Description | Haida / Metis Nations Born on June 29, 1958, in Prince Rupert, BC, Don Yeomans is one of the most respected and renowned Northwest Coast Native artists. Born of a Masset Haida father and a Metis mother from Slave Lake, Alberta, Yeomans has studied and worked in the Haida Style since he was a youth. As a young man, Yeomans apprenticed under the expert guidance of his aunt, Freda Diesing. He worked with Robert Davidson RCA on the Charles Edenshaw Memorial Longhouse and completed a jewelry apprenticeship with Phil Janze. Yeomans has also studied fine art at Langara College in Vancouver. He has worked with many acclaimed Northwest coast artists, including Bill Reid, Robert Davidson, Phil Janze and Gerry Marks, studying their styles, techniques and philosophies. Don Yeomans crafts his artworks in many materials: he creates exquisite jewelry pieces in gold and silver, paints elegant Haida designs on paper, produces outstanding prints and is one of the finest carvers. His work can be found in the University of British Columbia’s Museum of Anthropology, the Royal British Columbia Museum, the Canadian Museum of Civilization, and the Seattle Art Museum. In 2002 he completed a major totem pole commission for Stanford University. |

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.

This extraordinary piece stands as a resplendent tribute to one of the Pacific Northwest Coast’s paramount and revered sources of vitality: the Salmon. Salmon, an integral and indispensable facet of life in this region, has left an indelible imprint on the cultures, interactions, technologies, and spiritual beliefs of the Pacific Northwest Indigenous communities.
“Water gives energy to the salmon.” – Don Yeomans
In this quote, the artist encapsulates the spiritual and life-sustaining essence bestowed upon this remarkable creature. Revered as a gift from the Creator, Salmon transcends its physical form to embody abundance, regeneration, self-sacrifice, and perseverance. The shape of the body allows Salmon to defy gravity as it dances upstream to fulfil its essential role within the cycle of our lives.
This masterpiece skillfully converges nine distinct Salmon into a harmonious whole, thereby creating a symbol of unification that mirrors the interconnectedness of our existence.
Each meticulously rendered Salmon pays homage to the mastery of the artist as well as the intricate dance of life and energy that defines the West Coast Indigenous communities.
