D. Scott Taylor is a self-taught watercolour artist and has been painting professionally for over 20 years, beginning with numerous commissions of aircraft, homes, cars and people. Scott’s attention to detail and his ‘high realism’ style have been his bench-mark over the years, while at the same time, he attempts to find subject matter which is both pleasing to the eye and to the heart.

As you can see on his website under the Hockey Art category, Scott can now completely customize your painting. He hand-paints the different names, numbers, jerseys, helmet colour, & even hair colour to match your favorite hockey player. This ability has been met with considerable enthusiasm amongst those searching for the perfect gift!

Scott lives in Brampton, Ontario with his wife and four children (all of whom can be found in his paintings…. including Scott!)

Big Art Buzz welcomes our newest Ontario artist to our “creative hive” on the second last day of February, 2017.

Artist Bio:
Growing up I always enjoyed art. Whenever I had a chance during my travels I would visit art galleries and be in awe of the artists creations.
I am a self taught artist who is inspired by the beauty of God’s creation.
I enjoy the challenge of creating with oil and acrylic on canvas.
I thank the Lord for giving me such a wonderful gift that I can share with others.
It has been exciting to have my work accepted in the open Juried
Show and Wildlife Show at Beaux-arts in 2012.
Receiving honorable mention and peoples choice award has inspired me in my art work. Over the past years I have also painted set piece for the Brampton Music Theater and it is a thrill to see everything come together on stage.
This is been a great adventure and looking forward to what the future holds.

Inlet

Lu Robitaille
“Inlet”
10″ x 10″ print
$150 $350 framed

3 Artist Proofs and a Limited Edit of 125.

This painting is the first Image I went to print with. I call it my anniversary print because it was my 10th year in business. I sold half of the limited edition print, most likely because it is indicative of the east shoreline of Georgian Bay. The field work was done on an Island off Whalesback Channel near Cognashene On.

Lu Robitaille was born in historic Penetanguishene. She and her husband raised their two children in the remoteness of Tadenac Bay, later settling in Huronia. Lu has a home studio on Cedar Brook Farm, her family fish farm. Her deep feelings for Georgian Bay live in the art she creates; her rocks and water reflect the love and warmth she has for this unique part of Canada. She has a great affection for the character of old farms and lighthouses. Lu has developed a new style and format based on watercolour for her medium. For more information, or to arrange a private viewing of her work, Lu invites you and your family to contact her.

Cowgirl Style

Bridget Aubé
“Cowgirl Style”
Pencil
14″ x 18″
$225

Bridget Aubé 1927-2007
As a self-trained artist, Bridget worked in many mediums and excelled in all. She was a prolific talent with the main area of interest being in still life. Someone at a one-women show of her works said that she would love to learn from Bridget and Bridget responded that she wasn’t a teacher. She helped so many who worked alongside her, she was a teacher.
Food and florals often had prominence in her works but some of her still life were as simple as a pair of shoes, perfectly placed in a well designed image. Exquisite.
