Cultural Background: Coast Salish, T’Sou-ke Nation Born in Victoria British Columbia Shelley grew up in the small village of Shirley on the rugged southwest coast of Vancouver Island. Raised by her single hardworking mom and beloved grandmother, Shelley was always exposed to nature and wildlife from the beaches where she lived, to the backwoods camping and fishing trips with her mom and grandma. Shelley is Coast Salish living on T'Sou-ke Nation reserve and is starting to explore her cultural art forms. Learning more about her art culture of the T'Sou-ke Nation is again inspiring on another level for Shelley. She also has a First Nations motif mural on her nation's Tim Horton’s Center.
