He’s
first introduction to West Coast Art was watching a pole-raising
ceremony in Kispiox. As well as watching an artist paint several designs
on the elementary school. It took a few years later to start learning
the basic designs, like ovoids, crescents, U-forms, fillers, and form
lines. He is thankful for the ancestors and mentors to assist in
creating plaques, bowls, masks, totem poles, rattles, talking stick, and
engraving. The honorable teachers’ are Earl Muldon, Vernon Stephens,
Roy Hanuse and Clarence Wells. As a tribute to their lessons, Errol
passes the gift of carving or drawing to those who are serious on
learning the art. , “When the student is ready, the teacher will
appear”.
