METAL ARTIST ~
Jason Garneau
C
ombining industrial technique and visual grace,
Jason Garneau's metal sculptures portray the light-
hearted playfulness of nature masked by a variety of
finishes from reflective to matte, each revealing a unique
sense of movement and liveliness.
Jason Garneau modestly refers to himself as a
"Montana man", born and raised in the heart of the
Treasure State. His artistic talent emerged at age five
and continued to develop through the years, so much
so that he found himself in Advance Placement Art
classes from which he received college credits.
Living in Montana provides the perfect backdrop
for inspiration allowing him to convey wildlife and
western values in a brilliance of reflective light. Jason is
never short on ideas, visions or concepts; he just wishes
for more time in a day to bring these ideas to life.

ill Kats is a self taught artist
who carves unique, one-of-
a-kind pieces from butternut and
juniper wood. He carves from one
piece of wood with hand tools and
uses rotary tools for the fine detail
work. His inspiration comes from his
observant view of the natural world
and his studies of mountain men,
Native Americans and wildlife.
Will's work has been featured at the Grizzly Claw Gallery
in Seeley Lake, Electric Buffalo Gallery in Bigfork, and the
Dana Gallery and Artists Shop in Missoula.
