Frog

A symbol of prosperity, wealth, and good luck. In Tsimshian culture, the Frog is known as the communicator between Earth and mankind. Their song carries divine power and magic; it represents Spring and the abundance to come. The Haida carved frogs on their house posts to keep them from falling over. When the frog is shown sticking out its tongue and touching another creature, it portrays the sharing of knowledge and power.

Graham Henry

Graham Henry was born in 1970 in Duncan B.C. This area is representative of the Coast Salish Nation, a tribe that inhabits the southern region of British Columbia. Graham holds the Eagle, a prestigious and high-status symbol, as his crest. Graham learned carving from his brother, Travis Henry, as well as Patrick (Paddy) Seaweed, a well-regarded carver from Alert Bay. Graham’s carving style was greatly influenced by Patrick’s style. Graham is one of many Northwest Coast Native artists preserving the beautiful traditions of his ancestors.
