Description: 9" x 6" art card by Joe Wilson HUY CH Q'U Thank You / Welcome This design means both "Welcome" and "Thank You". Travelers between villages would sing as they peddled their canoes. When the people in the village heard the song they would gather on the shore to see who was coming. If the visitors were friendly, the men of the village would paddle out to greet them and bring them to shore - singing a welcome or paddling song, together. The open-palm in the design indicates welcome and is also used to say "Thank You". In the Saanich language "Huy ch q'u" is the word for "Thank You' and is always used in conversation including thanking people for visiting. Short bio of the artist on back of the print.
