Stan Huncilman’s story is one of restless curiosity and bold adventure. Born in Indiana, he left home after high school with no clear destination, driven by a hunger to see what lay beyond the horizon. His travels carried him from the bustling shipyards of Louisiana, where he worked as a welder, to the rugged foundries of Vermont, where he honed his skills as a machinist.

But it was a leap of faith that truly changed his life: joining the Peace Corps and journeying to Ecuador. There, amid the towering snowcapped volcanoes and the vibrant Kichwa communities, Stan discovered his twin passions—art and mountaineering. The raw beauty of the land and the resilience of its people left a permanent imprint on his spirit.

His path eventually led him to San Francisco, a city as bold and unconventional as Stan himself. He immersed himself in the thriving art scene, studying at San Francisco State University before earning his MFA in Sculpture from the San Francisco Art Institute in 1984.

Today, Stan calls Berkeley, California home. He continues to craft evocative works of art and seeks out wilderness adventures, forever chasing the next summit and the next spark of inspiration.
