Meet Artisan Cody Houle, Owner Behind the Brand of Stalking Heron Art

Cody Houle / Stalking Heron Art is an Anishinaabe artist from Southwestern Ontario, Canada. A self-taught painter, Houle didn’t realize he enjoyed this particular art form until he had already created multiple pieces at the age of 31. Though drawn to abstract visuals it is the woodland paintings that resonate most for Houle and his sense of his culture. Growing up, Houle felt shame and guilt surrounding his Native identity; now, his art allows him to show pride and strength in being an Indigenous man. Houle believes it is important to share art to inspire hope and encourage anyone to create.
