Totem poles and talking sticks by
David Horsley

David Horsley creates totem poles and talking sticks in the extremely rare style of the  southern inland Salish--the style of art created by his adopted tribe, the Snoqualmies.

The distinctive dot patterns and simplified animal shapes in solid colors of David's poles and talking sticks are characteristic of southern inland Salish artwork.
