Through her art Darlene Gait represents the beauty of the North West and its aboriginal people while also showcasing the traditional iconographic images of the art of the Coast Salish first people of the North West Coast. Her paintings are a visual feast of such art forms as Salish totem poles, native Indian mask carvings, bent wood boxes, bead work, dream catchers of the Esquimalt, the Quw’utsun, the Kwakwaka'wakw, the Pauquachin, the Tsarlip, the Songhees, as well as many other Coast Salish Nations living in the lower mainland as well as Vancouver Island.

Gait's art represents her people wearing native regalia, dancing at the potlatches, gathering berries in hand-made cedar baskets, wearing cedar hats and clothing, playing their traditional native drums and rattles, celebrating the traditions, music, dancing, feasting and gift giving at Potlatches, and canoe making and racing by the aboriginal people of the North West Coast. read more . . .
