Northwest Pacific coast Otter chasing Salmon Paper Plates

Buy your party these cool paper plates with a beautiful Otter chasing Salmon from British Columbia, Canada. The background is a green. Prey and Predator. That is the theme of my new Haida form-line styled otter chasing salmon drawing. I'm not actually sure otters eat salmon, but I like the idea to put a predator and prey into a Yin and Yang symbol. Do prey and predator not complement each other? Due to my family in British Columbia, for instance Vancouver BC, Haida Formline art has been part of my life. The Pacific Northwest coast is a beautiful place where I spent some happy holidays and a couple of years ago I decided to learn some of its native art. Formline is an indigenous art made by the First Nation people of Northwest coast of North America. The term formline is invented by Bill Holm. We use the word since 1965, but the art is many hundreds of years old. The idea is to create a flowing continuous line with increasing and decreasing thickness. We get negative spaces with a dominant black outline. The negative spaces are filled with form-line type ornaments or elements. The main forms are ovoid's, U forms and S forms. With these forms the artist composes a complete form-line.
