David Wong brought traditional Chinese carving traditions to the wildlife of Canada’s North, transforming BC nephrite jade into bears, eagles, salmon and more with remarkable precision and emotional depth.

For Wong, jade was already a deeply meaningful stone long before he discovered that some of the world’s finest deposits were here in Canada. His work is a powerful meeting point between cultures, materials and place.

This Asian Heritage Month, we’re honouring how his story and sculptures have shaped the way we see both jade and Canadian wildlife.

"Ojibwa Grandchild With Woodland Flowers" demonstrates Norval Morrisseau's range beyond narrative imagery.

The organic forms speak to the vitality of the natural world, while the bold colours create a sense of abundance and growth. The painting celebrates life in its most fundamental expressions.

Morrisseau painted not to decorate, but to teach. Each canvas carries lessons from his people, wisdom passed through generations and given new form through his innovative visual approach. His art served as a bridge between ancient knowledge and modern audiences.

As we celebrate Asian Heritage Month, we’re honoured to share the story of master jade sculptor David Wong.

Born in China in 1935, Wong trained in traditional carving before making a discovery that changed his life: that most jade was imported from British Columbia. That realization brought him to Vancouver, where his artistry and this landscape became inseparable.

EA Studios sponsored Wong from 1971 until his passing in 1998, and today we steward one of the largest collections of his work. His sculptures reflect a lifetime of cultural heritage and technical mastery.

This month, we invite you to learn more about David Wong’s journey and spend time with the works he left behind.

In "Bear Image," Norval Morrisseau explores the bear's dual nature: powerful predator and gentle berry-eater, fearsome protector and nurturing parent. The flowing lines of the composition connect the bear to the larger web of life.

The Woodland School of Art that Morrisseau founded continues to influence Indigenous artists across North America. His innovation was not merely stylistic but conceptual, he demonstrated that Indigenous art could speak to contemporary audiences while maintaining its spiritual integrity.

Our collection includes exceptional examples from throughout Morrisseau's career, allowing collectors to engage with the full range of his artistic development. Each piece we offer has been authenticated and documented to museum standards.

In "Unchallenged," Kitty Cantrell captures a moment of raw, untamed power - a roaring presence suspended in time.

Recognized as one of North America’s leading contemporary wildlife sculptors, Cantrell brings emotion, motion and narrative to life in three dimensions. Her animals seem ready to move, breathe and continue the activities we see them engaged in.

In "Wedding Vase," Christopher Pardell demonstrates the research that underlies all his work. Every detail has been verified, every element of composition considered for its contribution to historical accuracy and emotional resonance.

The emotional weight of Pardell's sculptures stems from his deep respect for the people and cultures he depicts. He approaches each piece as both artist and historian, understanding that accuracy serves not just documentation but honour. His subjects are not exotic curiosities but fully realized individuals whose dignity the sculpture preserves.

Working primarily in bronze and lucite, Pardell combines traditional sculpting methods with contemporary techniques to achieve pieces of remarkable intricacy. The tactile quality of his work reveals his reverence for his subjects - every feather, every fold of fabric, every expression tells a story of meticulous observation.

This piece is available for acquisition through EA Studios.

Award-winning sculptor Kitty Cantrell is one of North America's most sought-after wildlife artists, driven by her deep love for the natural world. Her profound respect for all living things is rooted in her upbringing in the Mojave Desert in Southern California.

It was here that Cantrell first became attuned to the rhythms and mystery of nature, a deep understanding that continues to inform and inspire her art today. With boundless imagination and an artist's eye, she spends her life studying and observing animal behaviour, always challenging herself to push the boundaries of her craft to capture their raw essence.

Authentic jade invites touch. The surface should feel smooth with a slightly waxy texture. In sculptural works, look for crisp, confident carving without obvious tool marks or rough transitions.

The craftsmanship of a master sculptor like David Wong reflects decades of expertise with this extraordinary stone.

Save this post as a reference next time you are assessing jade craftsmanship.

"Bringing Up Baby" captures its subject at a moment of particular awareness, demonstrating Kitty Cantrell's ability to suggest the inner life of animals through sculptural form. The piece invites extended contemplation, revealing new details with each viewing.

The critical acclaim surrounding Cantrell's work stems from her remarkable ability to create emotional resonance between the viewer and the subject. Her sculptures do not simply depict animals; they invite us into their world, asking us to consider their experience and our relationship to the natural world we share.

The emotional depth of Cantrell's work sets it apart from lesser wildlife sculpture. Her animals seem ready to move, to breathe, to continue the activities in which we have caught them. This quality of captured life is the mark of true mastery.

This sculpture is available for acquisition through EA Studios.
