Known to most of his friends as Delvis, he also held a family name, "Nahweknon". He was born January 7, 1965, in Saskatchewan, belonged to the Cree First Nations, a member of the Opeano Reserve. As a teen, he was into drawing his favorite rock bands and portraits. He eventually started drawing wildlife in pointillism, with a lot of hidden animals that the viewer had to focus to see. He studied the West Coast line drawing with Francis Horne, son-in-law of Frank and Mary Malloway. Delvis loved to watch other artists at work and was inspired by many people. Delvis was adopted out of his nation when he was a baby, to a couple in Abbotsford. During his early teens he was adopted by Frank and Mary Malloway of Yakweakwioose First Nations, Ts'elxweyeqw (Chilliwack). Delvis passed away on May 22, 2004. He left us with this quote: "Sometimes in my life I turn around and look back, that where I've been and the people I have met and who I have affected through my decisions and mistakes. Then I turn around and walk more carefully and respectfully of others in my life." Delvis was also known as the Abbotsford Arsonist
