History
A self-taught sculptor, Stephen started out as an antique furniture
picker. "I learned so much about good design and how to build furniture
that lasts forever." Luckily he was discovered after doing
his very first woodcarving, an angel. Stephen then began his life as an
artist. In 1994, Stephen suffered from Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome after falling down a flight of stairs which left him in a coma for two months. The doctors were not hopeful but with the help of his wife, Gwen, Stephen had a full recovery. He had to relearn
everything
from how to walk to how to sign his name. Just before the accident,
Stephen was inspired to do a series of woodcut prints based on his dog Sally . After waking up
from the coma, Stephen immediately began work on those woodcuts. The
first woodcut he carved was "Life Is A Ball" celebrating his new found
life.Today, Stephen Huneck's home and studio are in St. Johnsbury, Vermont which he shares with his wife and his three dogs, two Black Labs (Artie and Sally) and Molly, a Golden Retriever. Stephen and Gwen have totally furnished their home with Stephen's artwork. He works in his private studio attached to their house. Near their home is Dog Mountain where the Dog Chapel is located. You can often meet Stephen at his primary gallery in Woodstock, VT on Saturdays personalizing books and artwork.
