Edition Date: December 2015
Artist: Roy Henry Vickers
Medium: Serigraph
Image Size: 19" x 27"


I have a friend, Cyril Aster, who shares photos from the area around my home village of Kitkatla (Gitxaala). Cyril shared a photograph of a Lone Bull orca in Grenville Channel, which moved me to create. I'm thankful for old friends who share a love of the outdoors and the sea.

The Orca is one of our clans, along with the Eagle, Raven, and Wolf. My father was Orca, as was my Grandmother, Kathleen Collinson Vickers.

Many stories are passed on through generations of the Orca, which has helped to teach our people. Stories of rescued people, stories of enlightening people, as in my latest book, Orca Chief. All the stories teach us the laws of our people, which are founded on love and respect.

So many memories and stories come through this creation of Lone Bull.
