Klee Wyck

Through short sketches, the artist tells of her experiences among First Nations people and cultures on British Columbia's west coast.

Born in Victoria, British Columbia, she painted themes from nature, as well as imagery from the cultures of west coast First Nations.

She related some of her experiences on western Vancouver Island, Haida Gwaii, and on the Skeena and Nass Rivers in this first book.
