About the artist: "Kwaguilth artist Trevor Hunt was born in 1975 into the Hunt family of Fort Rupert, B.C. on the northern tip of Vancouver Island. Son of Stan Hunt, grandson of Henry Hunt and great-grandson of Mungo Martin, Trevor descends from a distinguished line of artists. He has been painting his interpretations of Kwaguilth histories and legends since he was ten years old, and in 1997 began formal lessons in wood carving under his father, Stan Hunt and his brother Jason Hunt. His other teachers include Tim Alfred and David Knox. Trevor's recent projects include a thirty-eight foot painting of a killer whale for the roof of a resort in Telegraph, B.C., and a logo for the Thunderbird Shopping Plaza in Port Hardy, B.C. Trevor Hunt currently lives and works in Fort Rupert, B.C. with his wife and two children (2002)." http://www.ancestralspirits.com [e-mail] 701 Water Street, Port Townsend, WA 98368 360.385.0078 Artist biography supplied by Ancestral Spirits Gallery, Port Townsend, WA
