As a child, Jay and his father Gene Brabant (also a master carver) would travel across North America to study the cravings of Indigenous people. Trained in several Northwest Coast styles, Jay now lives in Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. Jay continues to produce a variety of Totem Poles, Masks, Rattles, Bentwood Boxes etc. and his works are featured in fine galleries as well as the following books  Northwest Coast Carving Traditions by Karen and Ralph Norris, and many editions of the North American Indian Art Magazine.
