“Jade Great Horned Owl” is one of David Wong’s most psychologically resonant works, a presence that seems to study us as intently as we study it.

Wong treated each carving as a collaboration with the stone, allowing the jade's natural character to guide the final form. That disciplined respect for material, combined with precise carving, is part of what makes his sculptures so sought after among serious collectors.

Wong's legacy endures in works that continue to appreciate among serious collectors. As the finite nature of his output becomes increasingly apparent, pieces like this one take on added significance for those who recognize the rarity of such mastery.

The protector played a central role in many Indigenous communities, tasked with the safety of family and nation alike.

In "Defending The People," Christopher Pardell renders that duty without theatrics, letting a steady stance carry the sense of resolve.

The artworks we carry are not just decorative. They are documents of memory and history.

Every piece in the EA Studios collection tells a specific story about a culture, an artist and a moment worth preserving. David Wong’s jade carvings continue a 5,000 year lapidary tradition. Norval Morrisseau’s paintings record Woodland Ojibwe cosmology. Our Legends Collection protects faces and stories from the Indigenous and Western frontier that might otherwise disappear.

The shaman is a healer, seer and bridge between worlds, and Norval Morrisseau painted that role with profound care and clarity.

In “Grand Shaman,” a 48″ x 33″ acrylic on canvas, Morrisseau brings that presence forward in bold, saturated colour and composed stillness, a single figure holding both quiet authority and deep cultural resonance.

Our Starlite Original Legends Collection brings together sculptors Christopher Pardell, Kitty Cantrell and David Lemon around a single standard: fine art sculpture should earn its place through craft, accuracy and subjects whose stories deserve to endure.

Pardell documents Indigenous and Western frontier histories with quiet precision. Cantrell studies North American wildlife in the field, then sculpts each form with true-to-life anatomy. Different stories, the same commitment to significance and detail.

It was in Taiwan, standing in front of a large block of Canadian jade, that everything changed for David Wong.

He had trained in carving ivory. He had a law degree. But he set it all aside, moved to Vancouver in 1971 and spent the rest of his life working in stone.

That decision is why the EA Studios collection exists. We sponsored Wong from the year he arrived in Canada until his death in 1998, and what came out in those 27 years is some of the most significant jade sculptures produced on this continent.

Big cats spend much of their lives at rest, coiling enormous power into stillness between bursts of action.

In "Cat's Cradle," Kitty Cantrell finds that latent strength in a relaxed but ready pose.

What do you think it is watching?

The title nods to Chief Joseph's surrender in 1877, when the Nez Perce leader vowed he would fight no more forever.

In "No More Forever," Christopher Pardell treats that moment of exhaustion and dignity with the care it deserves, letting stillness carry the weight of the history.

Our Art Display Program brings original Morrisseau paintings and select David Wong pieces into corporate offices, hospitality spaces and healthcare settings, on a flexible lease that lets you rotate the work as the space evolves.

It's a way to live with significant art and keep things fresh, with each piece protected and professionally handled throughout, and the arrangement kept entirely on your terms.

EA Studios Calgary director Joseph Helmy recently visited Haultain Memorial Elementary School to introduce students to the artwork of Norval Morrisseau.

After learning about Morrisseau’s legacy, the class brought one of his pieces to life by completing their own colouring pages inspired by his work.

EA Studios also donated a Morrisseau print, "Teaching The Young," to the school.
