Over the The Shore - Watercolour Seascape Painting

Inspired by my uncle John Wilson, an artist and sign painter, I began drawing at a young age. In grade six I became a professional artist of sorts by selling my classmates drawings of hockey goalies for the princely sum of 25 cents. Later on I graduated from The Alberta College of Art in Calgary, Canada. My first job out of school was courtroom sketches for a TV station and then on to Art Director for an Ad Agency before freelancing as a Designer and Illustrator using watercolours, sometimes with pen and ink.
