Juanita Ens: After spending 5 years apprenticing with a mentor from 2006-2011, Juanita took a hiatus from the art market to raise her twins born in 2009. In the years since Juanita has learned a variety of new skills and is embracing new mediums. A passion for colour and exploration led her to stained glass. Around since the 7th century, stained glass is an artform itself and a new and innovative medium for Haida artistic expression.
