Patty Fawn

Patty Fawn is the third child and only daughter of Shona-Hah.

Tlakwastalilumga, Patty’s Kwakwaka’wakw (Kwakiutl) name, means “precious as copper”. The name suits her well. Patty’s spontaneity, warmth and loving concern for others endears her to all who meet her.

A gifted and versatile artist, Patty specializes in Northwest Coast Indian jewelry and small sculpture. She works with both traditional designs and contemporary ones, drawing upon the mythology of the Northwest Coast Peoples for inspiration. Her materials include fossilized ivory, silver, gold, bone, shell, antler, and occasionally wood.

Of particular interest to collectors are Patty’s special pieces and limited edition works cast in silver and gold from ivory originals.

Like all members of the family, Patty has devoted considerable amounts of time to the educational programs. She is a talented dancer and adept at demonstrating Indian arts and crafts.

Patty is the mother of a daughter, Nakwesee and son, Jay. Nakwesee is married to Augustus, they are both jewelers and have retired as dancers in the educational programs. Patty has two grandchildren by her son, Jamie and Dustin.
