Joanne Nelson is Tsimshian from Lax Kw'alaams and was born and raised in Port Edward and Prince Rupert, BC in northern British Columbia. Joanne has always had an interest in traditional art forms and grew up surrounded by wonderful works of art. She has dedicated herself to the study of Tsimshian arts and has observed many artists, particularly engravers for many years. Her love of First Nations art inspired her to begin her own journey as a jewelry engraver. She has developed her own style of clean lines and feminine detail. Joanne credits her mother (Della Nelson nee Ross of Lax Kw'alaams, Killer Whale clan) and father (Charlie Nelson of Kitsumkalum, Raven Clan) for instilling cultural pride and work ethic to her from a young age.
