Ike has been carving for 30 years. At a very young age he achieved as a professional artist. At the age of 18 he was teaching a native art class at the Ha-ho-pa-yuk School in Port Alberni, BC. He has also worked in the Victoria, BC school district as a native art and cultural teacher. Ike has worked many jobs, but has always come back to his art, and now he is a full time artist. He has returned to Port Alberni, here on Vancouver Island, where he was born. He has taught many other youth who were interested to carve privately. Ike is a father to four children and learning as much as he can, so he may pass these teachings onto the next generation.
