Eric Parnell Prints

Native Art Prints has recently started carrying the work of Haida artist Eric Parnell. Eric was born in Prince Rupert - on November 6th of 1961 - and is a member of the Masset Band.  His family clan is the Frog and his crest is the Eagle. Since 1985, Eric has been living and working in Vancouver.

Primarily a self-taught artist, Eric has been painting since 2002. Recently, he has added print-making to his body of work. Citing Robert Davidson and Bill Reid as two of his influences, Eric has also taken inspiration from his culture as a whole. As a young boy, he spent his time with other artists, and was introduced to the artistic world when he used to help artists from his community sell their argillite pendants. One of Eric's goals as an artist is to "continue to be a small part of the revival and continuity of our peoples' traditions."

Andrew Dexel Enpaauk Prints

Andrew Dexel Enpaauk is a young artist from the Nlakapamux Nation. Native Art Prints has been carrying his work for several years now, and it sells very well since his style mixes graffiti style with Coast Salish design. This fusion creates figurative and abstract images that speak to resistance and renewal. He began creating limited edition prints soon after establishing his unique style.

His beginnings as a graffiti artist is central to his style and since his switch from walls to canvas in 2007 he has brought this energy from the streets into his paintings. His work was featured in Kamloops Art Gallery's exhibition Shazam in 2009 and he also had the pleasure doing a solo show titled Gratitude at Vancouver's Grunt Gallery. 

His work is also featured at Vancouver's Lattimer Gallery and the Native Winds Gallery in Honolulu. He also had a showing of new works at Lattimer Gallery in 2010. Around this same period, Andrew painted a 7 1/2-foot fiberglass sculpture for Vancouver's public art project titled 'Eagles in the City'.
