Doug Dorken

DOUG DORKEN grew up around Halifax and other areas of Nova Scotia, traveling with his military family. Doug joined the army at 18 and then the navy. Doug’s folk art sells across the province and in Toronto, but tendonitis is forcing a break from his carving. He still employs his naval expertise in assisting the environmentally sound sinking of warships to create artificial reefs. He also bagpipes for special occasions and plays hockey. Doug lives in Chester with his wife Agi and dog, Teddy.
