About the Artist: Tresham Gregg

Tresham Gregg is a rare and unique multi-medium mystic or fantasy artist who works in a number of mediums including woodcarving, silk screen printing, painting, metal sculpture, talismanic jewelry, and puppet making and improv. All of his work has a mystic bend to it, as it reflects his interest in supernatural realms and ancient mythology. Tresham captures the unseen spirit of the land through his unique artistic stylization.

Tresham started off carving when he was a young teenager growing up in Fort Seward, Haines, Alaska as a member of a Boy Scout Troop learning Native art and culture, creating regalia, and performing masked dance theater shows of Native Legends - making the connection between the wild animals of the land, sea, and sky and the spirit realm where animals take on human characteristics with a supernatural perspective. This experience inherently became part of who he is as an artist.

Tresham likes to reveal and animate natural phenomenon as spirit forces, like Northern Lights being Eagles or Ravens or Aurora Dancers. He gets there through impressionist treatments in various mediums; somewhat abstracting, somewhat stylized, somewhat fantasy treatments of form and flow. Dance is the basic element in his work as it is a connection to a subconscious guiding hand. His spiritual philosophy is a mixture of Northwest Coast Native spiritual thinking and Hindu Mythology.

Tresham is also an Artistic Adventurer, having traveled to various places in the world to explore the arts of different cultures and to do unique artistic involvements with local peoples. A variety of mystic art techniques allow for a web of interconnected styles that tantalize the eyes and charm the inner child.

SeaWolf Gallery

Tresham Gregg’s galleries in Haines, Alaska feature works in a number of different mediums by Tresham including: woodcarvings, silk screen prints, paintings, metal wall sculptures, silver and beaded talismanic jewelry, fantasy character figurines, art puppet dolls, and clothing. Tresham usually is found working in his Seawolf Gallery on various carvings and loves to do puppet improvs with visitors. The Seawolf Gallery is a iconic trappers cabin located in the middle of the Fort Seward Parade Field and was built by Tresham a number of years ago. It was recently severely burnt by an arsonist and had to be refurbished by Tresham last summer. Tresham learned Tlingit Native Art at an early age as part of the Chilkat Dancers Native Arts Revival Program, and his affinity for the Native Spiritual way of thinking influences his artistic designing. Tresham also produces masked theater shows that he writes.
