LON FRENCH - SMALL Framed Print

I’m a Haida graphic artist and have been creating Haida art since 2012. This is when I started learning about my family from Haida Gwaii. I researched Haida art and learned the basic forms. Then I started playing with designs and developed my own style. That style has evolved and continues to evolve the more I create new work. I have tried to stay true to the traditional Haida style and have for the most part, but I feel that to grow as an artist I must be open to change. As I continue on my new path, I try new things and learn more about tradition and this is reflected in my work.  I’m mainly a self-taught artist but did take classes from George Hunt Jr. at S J Willis Secondary back in the early 1980’s.  I hope you enjoy my designs and follow my journey of discovery.
