Mike is always interested in creating art as far back as pre-school. In the last decade, he worked developing his gift as an artist. The opportunity to study and work with a number of established traditional native carvers and painters from Nuuchanulth, Kwaguilth and Cost Salish Nations has greatly assisted him in developing skills in creating fine art. He has been working on a number of different materials and mediums such as stone, antler, silk screening, clay, tattoo designs. Presently he is working on yellow and red cedar making traditional and contemporary plaques, masks, totem poles, paddles, canoes, talking sticks, headdresses, and various other sculptures. He is presently preparing to make jewelry.

Mike hopes his art will bring joy and happiness to people.
