The last few years he has helped Coast Salish artist Dylan Thomas with several major works, including 3 totem poles and many large panels.Trevor works with wood, mostly yellow and red cedar, making wall panels, bentwood boxes, masks, paddles and totems; he works with Ruggid Coast to create metal sculpture; creates silkscreen prints, digital designs, and also does tattoo.
