Chris Stanton is a metal artist who resides on Whidbey Island. Chris worked at Dakota Creek for over 15 years before starting a hot rod restoration shop with a friend. He bought a CNC plasma table to help with making obsolete parts for the shop, and eventually started making metal art for friends and family. Chris has embraced his artistic side and now sells his art locally.
