Artist Bio: Doug Rutherford

Doug Rutherford (he/him) is a self-taught visual artist, concentrating on watercolour landscapes of the vistas of the Yukon, northern BC, and Alaska. He is of settler descent.
 
In keeping with the Robert Service question, “There's the land. (Have you seen it?)” he tries to make available the breathtaking scenery of this wonderful region in small format paintings.
 

In this workshop, participants will make a nature inspired watercolour painting. No experience is necessary and all materials will be provided.
