LightHunter Creations

LightHunter Creations I'm making small, tactile mixed media sculptures that meld organic forms and odd anatomy into compact, intimate objects. Hi. I'm Mike Taylor.

I retired from my position as an Arts Programmer with the City of Ottawa in the fall of 2020. I have started this little business to provide a single outlet for my various creative efforts. At this time, the plan is to mostly sell hand made items at arts and crafts fairs, etc., so that I can control my schedule. I also do photography and am exploring various printmaking avenues. I am open to colla

borations on your event or exhibition. I do some work out of my home and the rest at my studio ( #137) in the Studio Space Ottawa location, 2477 Kaladar Avenue. I have some older pages that haven't been updated for years:

Looking forward to this big market. We’ll be across the street from my former workplace (Shenkman Arts), and just a couple blocks from home. Try not to give Julien the gears for his shiner 😆. It’s his music here. Heart of Orleans BIA
