Patrick Hunter

Patrick Hunter is a 2Spirit Ojibway Woodland artist from the community of Red Lake, in North Western Ontario. Patrick paints what he sees through a spiritual lens which is inspired by his homeland and growing up seeing the original works of Woodland painter Norval Morrisseau in various buildings around his home town.

Hunter’s first formal introduction to the Woodland Art form began in 10th grade art class, under the tutelage of one of his greatest mentors, Rhonda Bobinski-Beckman. After graduating high school in 2006, Patrick took a break from his studies to pursue a 6-month opportunity to help build confidence in others by joining the positive role-modeling organization, Turtle Concepts in Garden River First Nation. This not-for-profit organization travels to First Nation communities around North America dismantling stereotypes and encouraging others to attain their goals through positive behaviour.

In 2007, Patrick joined the team at Shingwauk Education Trust as the assistant to the Executive Director. It was there that he assisted in the early development of Shingwauk University in Sault Ste. Marie, ON, the first accredited University from a First Nations worldview, on the campus of Algoma University.
