Sheldon Dennis
Tahltan (Wolf Clan)

Sheldon is originally from Iskut, BC. He started drawing and painting when he was a child. Sheldon remembers watching his father and grandfather carve. He was inspired by other artistic people and was motivated by his family’s encouraging words.
“You can achieve anything if you just follow your heart. It’s good to know after you are gone that you’ll leave a little something behind for future generations.”
