In the world of Graham Watts, art serves as a bridge between nature and human emotion. Renowned for his vibrant oil paintings, Watts captures the awe-inspiring beauty of British Columbia's mountains, forests, and wildlife. Drawing inspiration from the breathtaking scenery of Vancouver, Whistler, and the Sea-to-Sky Corridor, his work reflects a deep connection to the natural world and a passion for artistic exploration.

Each of Graham's paintings invites viewers to experience landscapes not just as observers but as participants in the serenity and majesty of nature. He immerses himself in the environment, exploring and studying the landscape to experience firsthand the energy of a place—the scale, colors, lighting, textures, and the feelings that arise within. This dedication allows him to convey the true essence of the wilderness in his art.

Graham loves working with oil paints for their texture and luminosity, enjoying the process of mixing colors. He feels more like a sculptor trying to chisel rock to achieve a 3D effect, capturing the snowy and rugged terrain of mountains or finding the soul in his depictions of bears. Recognizing that viewers only see the final result, he acknowledges the time and sometimes struggle it takes to reach the desired outcome in his paintings.

Originally from Guelph, Ontario, Graham Watts moved to the west coast over 25 years ago. An outdoors enthusiast, his art springs naturally from his love of skiing, hiking, and water sports in the region's wilderness. His work serves as a call to action for conservation, reminding us of the importance of preserving our planet's wild spaces.

Investing in Graham Watts' original Canadian art is more than an acquisition; it's an emotional connection. An original artwork is a passionate creation that reflects the artist's soul and resonates with your own. It inspires, offers an escape, radiates beauty, and ignites conversations. You can discover and purchase his art from the comfort of your home. Whether you seek to enhance your living space, find inspiration, or expand your art collection, his online gallery offers an effortless browsing and purchasing experience.

Choose from original paintings, limited edition art prints, or commission a piece tailor-made for you. Buying an original painting is an investment that grants you the joy of owning a one-of-a-kind masterpiece while preserving our artistic heritage for future generations.

When commissioning an original painting, you receive a unique artwork personalized to your taste, bringing your passions to life. Graham seamlessly guides you through the process, making it exceptionally easy and enjoyable. As one client remarked:

"My husband and I commissioned two paintings from Graham as we love his mountain and cityscape depictions of the North Shore and Whistler. The end results were even better than anticipated. Multiple houseguests have provided unsolicited comments on the high quality of his paintings. We would unreservedly recommend him as an artist."
