The Artist

Bruce is formerly from Main Brook on the Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland and
Labrador. He now lives in Corner Brook, NL with his wife Maureen.
He is a completely self-taught artist, who has always had an interest in art.
His paintings, which are mostly scenes of rural Newfoundland
and Labrador, have been bought by both private and corporate collectors across 
North America. He has had several group and solo shows of his art. 







Artist Statement
"I get the ideas for my paintings from the inspirational views and subject material I find
when I visit the rural communities of Newfoundland and Labrador. Seashore
scenes, wildlife, mountains, icebergs, and small fishing communities of
Newfoundland and Labrador can provide an artist with a limitless supply of
inspirational material. Most of my paintings are of areas along the Northern
peninsula of the island because of the beautiful scenery and our frequent
visits to the area. I try to reflect in those paintings Newfoundland's unique
character.
A lot of my paintings contain children, but my main purpose
is not to have them as the central theme in my paintings. It is the unique
places that they live and play in that truly reflects the character of
Newfoundland and Labrador."
