Jim Laing AFCA
Jim Laing was born in Montreal and for many years practiced nationally and internationally as a consulting engineer. He now paints from his home studio in Kelowna BC. Working in oils, acrylics, pen and pencil, Jim is largely self-taught but has benefited greatly from various workshops and short courses. He is particularly grateful for lessons and workshops given by Dennis Weber SFCA and other accomplished Canadian artists.
Enjoying a wide range of subjects, Jim's paintings include still-life images, florals, children at play, portraits, landscapes and wildlife scenes. He is fascinated by how light falls across a subject influencing its colours and mood.
Working in both realistic and impressionistic styles, his paintings have been displayed in over 45 shows and, for 5 years, in a commercial Gallery. Selected paintings are in private collections in Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario and Australia.
