These authentic art works painted in oils, crafted in clay or designed in glass show case the talented artists.

The compelling imagery is drawn from the artist’s ancestry shared with the Metis and Coastal Salish people of British Columbia. They are authentic works of art created with a contemporary twist.

Some indigenous peoples believed that the brightly coloured autumn leaves falling into the water were magically transformed into salmon who were returning to their birthplace to spawn.

Commissioned Oil painting at Wine Country Studios by Lambert featuring Tlinget Basketry

The Tlingit weavers were praised as the most skillful basket weavers on the Northwest Coast. Most Tlingit basketry is twined from finely split spruce root and decorated using grasses and fern stems.

Did you know we may be connected with nine different animals that accompany us through life as our guides?

We experience the wisdom and assistance of these different animal guides as they come into and out of our lives throughout our journey. They join us during new tasks, changes in direction, lessons to be learnt, and all events involving spiritual growth including simply bettering ourselves in day to day living.

Most traditions agree that we usually experience at least one animal guide who stays with us for our whole life, in both the spiritual world and physical manifestations. This animal acts as our main guardian spirit (Life Totem). You share a connection with this animal that will show itself in shared characteristics, your dreams, various interactions, and an ongoing interest in this animal throughout your life. Your animal guide offers power and wisdom to you. It is with you to assist in your soul’s purpose in life during this manifestation.
