    Oscardo entered the Canadian and Indigenous gift and souvenirs market in 1997 with the acquisition of Skemo, a producer of Indigenous themed gifts since 1956. To expand the business we signed indigenous artists, leading the industry by paying royalties on every product sold.

    As our reputation grew for producing innovative quality products, we successfully acquired licenses to reproduce some of Canada’s most iconic indigenous artwork on everyday products. Currently over 20 artists are represented within the Oscardo family. We feel privileged to be able to help promote their art to Canadians and visitors alike.

    Today, Oscardo is one of Canada’s leading Indigenous gift suppliers and our products are found in Indigenous stores and wholesalers, boutiques, museums, public and private art galleries, National Parks and government organizations in every province of Canada.

  • Francis Dick - Kwakwaka'wakw Artist

    Francis Dick is a contemporary Native artist and a member of the Kwakwaka'wakw Nation. Francis was born in 1959 in ‘Yalis (Alert Bay) into the Musga’makw Dzawada’enuxw Band of Kingcome Inlet. She is a descendant of the Kawadelakala (Supernatural Wolf), who shed his animal form to become the first of the Kingcome people. She is adept in Dzawadaenuxw art style.
    Francis’s work whether visual, lyrical or verbal is strongly influenced by her cultural heritage. Much of her earlier art contains images of her family’s Kawadelekala legend. However as Francis’s style and art form developed, she began to work on images outside of her culture. Nonetheless, her cultural traditions still have a strong influence on her work.
    Francis finds meaning in her life through her creativity in art, which she ‘dreams up’ and constructs. She plays an integral part within the Native art community in Canada. She has been invited to speak for various community organizations, women’s groups and university classes.
    Today, Francis’ art is internationally renowned. Her story has been heard in various universities around the world, and her art travelled worldwide and was exhibited in North America, Asia and Europe. She presently lives in Victoria, B.C. where she is continually working with her creative expressions to fabricate a meaningful way of life.
