Jason E. Doucette
Hi, my I'm Jason and I'm a contemporary wildlife artist. I've been painting off and on since around 2001 and first started in oils. I grew up on the east coast of Canada in Nova Scotia in a small Acadian village surrounded by the sea and helping my dad on our small farm. I currently live in Saskatoon Saskatchewan Canada.
Ever since I was a child I’ve always been inspired by the subtle nuances of the world around me. The picture that emerges if you only allow it the time to present itself. To look on a subject and see it anew, the imperfections, the subtle changes of color as the light plays along its surface.
I’ve always created paintings of subject matter I wish to know on a deeper level, of a moment in time I want to convey. I want to know the world around me and art is my catalyst.
I grew up on a small farm in rural Nova Scotia and so my love of animals has always been a big part of my life. I know the harsh reality of the world in which animals live, both wild and kept and so I try to give my subject a stoic expression in my paintings, a sense of reserved dignity.
My paintings are found in private collections across North America and the British Isles and can also be seen in various art shows around Saskatoon Saskatchewan where I currently live.
Jason Doucette is a wildlife artist residing in Saskatoon Saskatchewan, Canada.
