By Danielle Louise Allard is a rising talent in the Haida art world. A classically trained painter, she dived into Haida formline in 2020, apprenticing with Haida master artist Christian White.
Inspiration Behind Dreamscapes: An original painting, Dreamscapes, featuring Tl'ak'aa.uu (Goose Barnacles) is an exploration into the explored and unexplored places of the world and the mind. Melding experience and imagination into one dreamy painting, Dreamscapes was created by Haida artist Danielle Louise Allard after experiencing a week-long adventure in Gwaii Haanas, the southern islands of Haida Gwaii.
Gwaii Haanas, renowned for its rich history, thriving ecosystems, and Haida culture, provided the artist an opportunity to slow down and reconnect in a landscape that feels otherworldly. Surrounded by towering trees, quiet shorelines, and stories carried through the land, she began to see the world through a softer, more imaginative lens. This painting captures that feeling — the stillness, the wonder, and the hushed beauty of a place that seems to stand outside of time.
