Bart L. Churchill
See:
Wood Carvings
| Bart L. Churchill is an accomplished Tlingit
carver from the Eagle/Brown Bear Clan. Born in Everett, WA, Bart was raised
and now resides in Wrangell, Alaska. He has been carving for most of his
life and at a young age, his passion was to learn and understand more about
his culture. This knowledge would prove to be essential in his artwork. Bart
soon became partial to the techniques he'd observed over the years and
continues today to create and carve works of art in the traditions he knows
and loves. As a commercial fisherman, Bart produces his work in the long
winter months. "BLC" -- his signature -- is easily recognizable on all his
carvings, which are predominantly made of red or yellow cedar. |
