Doug LaFortune is one of the most widely known west coast native artists. Born in Bellingham, Washington USA in 1953, Doug was inspired and encouraged by Simon Charlie, a world-renowned artist, to pursue his talents and start his career as a artisan in 1973. Based on classic Coast Salish design, Doug has developed a unique and distinctive style whether in carving or graphic designs. Doug has been commissioned to carve numerous totem poles that have been sent around the world.
” The Salish people have inhabited the area around the Salish Sea for thousands of years. The Salish Sea has been a generous provider to our people offering nourishment as well as inspiration. The unique natural environment and wildlife are central to our ceremonies, regalia, dances and stories. Our culture is based on the relationship our ancestors had with the natural world they lived in and the animals with who they cohabited. The wildlife of the Salish Sea continues to inspire our traditions, teachings and the way we live. Our culture and world view is based on our deep respect of the animals of the Salish Sea.” -Doug LaFortune.
