Dave’s Custom Carvings

Haida artist Dave Hunter tells stories and legends of his Haida ancestry through his original paintings, silver and argillite carvings.

Largely self-taught, learning the art of carving first with wood and then moving on to other mediums. Today he is most renowned for his silver jewellery, which often depicts animals and mythical creatures. Dave is also responsible for the creation of numerous original paintings which have been made into art cards, post cards and limited edition prints and is active within the Haida community as well as the artists’ community on Haida Gwaii.

He was the founder of the Haida Raven Gallery in Masset, a gallery dedicated to promoting the works of Haida artists. Dave’s work has been exhibited and sold in various galleries and venues throughout Haida Gwaii and beyond for more than three decades and is available for commission work.
