Jim's Bio & Events
Here's some background information about what has happened for me as an artist:
Overall I've been painting for about 25 year: I'm self-taught and have always a contemporary pointillist painting style. As an artist, my desire is to paint feelings of light, joy and harmony in my landscapes. My studio is in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
My artwork has exhibited in many international locations including events in France, Italy, Brazil, Monaco and the USA. And I exhibited artwork annually for six years (2011 to 2016) the juried-entry Salon held by the historic Societe National des Beaux-Artes (SNBA) at the Carrousel du Louvre in Paris France.
In 2014, I received a medal award recognition from France's national Academie Arts-Sciences-Lettres. And in 2012, ArtTour International magazine wrote about me as a ‘master pointillist’: the magazine further recognised my work with an award for "Excellence in The Arts and Outstanding Career Achievement".
