She has had the honour of working with artists and industrial designers throughout her career on public art projects, as well as custom benches and bike ring designs for the City of Toronto. She comes to this work as a designer with expertise from working in a mixed materials manufacturing plant in Guelph, Ontario, during summers and university. This is where she learned first-hand about working with metals, plastics, fiberglass, finishes (galvanizing, anodizing, painting, sandblasting), as well as fabrication processes such as grinding, spot-welding, CNC machining, laser-/water-jet cutting, and aluminum casting. Her love of art inspires her to co-design with artists to create meaningful site furnishing elements for public realm projects, originating with a vision to celebrate culture, honour the Land and Water, and grounded in the reality of knowing what is required to create the finished product. Examples of her artistic work is found across SpruceLab projects and her portfolio. https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/amber-smith-quail daily 0.75 2026-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/46508336-7f3c-45c6-8251-5956f25e42d8/MicrosoftTeams-image.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/a13ce233-2af2-4925-86b7-e8efe12a698b/LANDBACK_Detail.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/4fdb08c0-e01d-4269-a4d7-ef66bdd21609/Amber%2BSmith%2BQuail.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/6ab4770e-d78a-4afa-ac15-e7be4c2dc6d4/dlsyfwe8ndzl70drsliz.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/4a796ee9-25ba-44ab-8fbb-edb3fb8b41aa/1761419327876.jpg Amber Smith Quail - Amber Smith Quail Amber Smith Quail is an artist, educator, mother, wife and auntie who divides her time between South Algonquin and Tkaronto.

His works of art blend tradition and innovation, carry strong messages and reflect his renewed commitment to causes that are close to his heart, including identity, protection of the environment and mutual aid. Chevrier has a sensitive soul and is proud of his origins. His fondest wish is that his efforts, works and teachings serve as beacons for others who also follow a road to healing. Besides giving lectures and workshops promoting full autonomy, Chevrier opens the door of his workshop to all those seeking to learn : “I can only plant a seed; then it’s up to them to make it sprout, grow and bear fruit. “When I come back to my own culture, I can strongly use the words of the Elders. Artists have always been like sponges: when they hear things, they absorb it. When Elders talk, they draw you into their story and, as a visual artist, you can see those words and you can just add on to that and tell their stories: how we got here and how we have survived through the dances, through the songs, through the drums and everything that connects us in that way. [Art] is a way to express who you are as a First Nation. For me, it’s a good healing tool.” https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/jacques-baril daily 0.75 2026-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/3761d1ce-969d-47c1-a7a1-5dae9d6a1a40/AkiOdehi_JBaril%2B%281%29.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/0bb2df16-4def-4c08-ac1b-b26a6e599827/JBaril_Malartic.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/9f7987ec-c925-49c0-929f-d053cb5a337e/Val%2Bd%2527Or%2B-%2BKarl%2Band%2BJacques.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/a6bf88e1-11f7-4248-be4b-24b30c208736/christian-leduc-3766.jpg Jacques Baril - Jacques Baril “I am the hunter becoming a light breeze lifting each leaf. I am the hunted in brown and green earth, swallowing the hunter's footsteps. In this warlike paradox, history only exists through the symbiosis of the protagonists. Each of the hunts changes my story, recognizing it and naming it, it's my work as an artist. It is therefore the story of the paradoxes that punctuate my life that my works tell. Thus, becoming a predator of my work, I consume its essence to acquire the virtues of what I have not controlled.” Jacques has been pursuing an artistic career for more than twenty-seven years that has taken him all over the world. A self-taught sculptor, he has participated in numerous exhibitions and symposia, both in Canada and abroad (Japan, Switzerland, Italy). He has won a large number of scholarships and awards for his work, including more than thirty snow sculpture prizes, five Prima Hydro-Québec prizes, the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec prize in Abitibi-Témiscamingue. He has been a member of several juries regionally, nationally and internationally, in addition to having carried out several projects integrating the arts into architecture. For the past ten years, Jacques has been offering snow sculpture workshops that have been very successful in schools, as well as at various winter celebrations with the general public. https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/artists daily 0.75 2026-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/78fb555f-0640-40d1-8ddb-ce0cb7c4f733/L_in%2Bprofile.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/7c16e108-3459-465c-a5c2-6045b115ac96/2025+SpruceLab+Gwen+Lane+headshot.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/43d48ce6-2b4d-4a93-b426-fbc6f02a865e/Amber%2BSmith%2BQuail%2Bportrait.webp https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/c8adf0c9-d089-4d6f-ba66-ca1f0f295a9e/danseur-traditionnel-notre-dame-du-nord.jpg https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/ashley-macdonald daily 0.75 2026-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/d6e1b34d-b0cd-438c-bc54-6a4ab4e17733/6M1Aa1008.jpg Ashley MacDonald https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/655de8a8-6bd4-4119-a0dc-96d224750f58/AshleyMacDonald_ModLux.webp Ashley MacDonald https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/58518a40-bee1-4564-ba17-9ce1af8f69b1/Mule_back.webp Ashley MacDonald https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/42083438-f79a-49af-999f-e760a12bed76/Skyline_table_3Q.webp Ashley MacDonald https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/1f870f1c-5297-4a72-b081-5bd1b4d9c583/Bronze%2Bcastings.webp Ashley MacDonald Images courtesy of Ashley https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/0a8d336e-f943-40e3-8d4e-4d318489c06c/Float_fullset.webp Ashley MacDonald https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/gwen-lane daily 0.75 2026-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/a5182a75-385a-48aa-bba4-7d944dcf2dd4/d6ac496d-5ffb-4a75-9a72-def3af6e1923.jpg Gwen Lane https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/861696ff-91f9-4936-8619-ba2f1b45cbd1/20260501_123139.jpg Gwen Lane https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/6c70c3f8-37d4-4eb8-aa25-6dccf1963f19/20260501_124112.jpg Gwen Lane https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/618105b2-5455-4946-86df-f7ad0e6a5e3f/20260501_123209.jpg Gwen Lane https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/collections daily 0.75 2026-05-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/db8e9f81-7411-4b05-bc84-783891c84f07/Portfolio_CHEVRIER_Karl_001.jpg Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/43d48ce6-2b4d-4a93-b426-fbc6f02a865e/Amber%2BSmith%2BQuail%2Bportrait.webp Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/c5d50f36-66b2-4430-a726-b104a94dc379/EN3SOJ6L55GMVCQ5TFU6S4V7DM+%281%29.jpg Collections https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/ad2e3195-456e-473c-8620-b9ed8c631feb/Gwen%2Bsmudging%2B2_Pickering%2Bevent%2B%283%29.webp Collections https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/collections/canoe-bench monthly 0.5 2026-05-01 https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/collections/fences-gates-screens monthly 0.5 2026-05-01 https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/collections/thunderbird monthly 0.5 2026-05-01 https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/collections/tree-grates monthly 0.5 2026-05-01 https://www.dbaajmowin.ca/collections/p/thunderbird-bike-rack monthly 0.5 2026-04-29 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69a881d2d61391708b429cf9/508c6bbc-2796-401b-a2a7-602272a5954a/Thunderbird+Bike+Rack+-+Render+-+front.png Collections -
