Kent Estey

Contemporary Native Artist Kent Estey (Ojibwe), is an enrolled member of the White Earth Ojibwe Nation of Northwestern Minnesota. His heritage includes many self-taught artists where black-ash basketry, beading, sewing and birch-bark artistry were everyday occurrences in his home. Raised in Naytahwaush, Minnesota, Kent continues his artistry while he and his wife Becky teach at the local Community Charter School.  Kent’s preferred art form is painting with oils, acrylics and inks.  His paintings reflect feelings and emotions through his use of color and movement on the canvas, and most often painted as a sky or landscape.
