Brent Townsend is a highly respected Wildlife artist who lets his paintings speak for him. His passion for the outdoors, combined with his talent, allows him to create works of art that aren’t just portraits of wildlife, but scenes that relay the intimate connection the animals have with their habitat.
Born in 1962 in a suburban Toronto neighborhood, his backyard was bordered by a ravine. Fascinated with the wealth of nature that existed just outside his back door, Townsend studied the rocks, water and plant life along the creek. As he grew older, his area of interest widened and he now specializes in supremely detailed views of the North American wilderness.
Townsend is one of Canada’s favorite and foremost wildlife artists. Brent's work has been popular among collectors across North America for years. Canadians will recognize Brent's polar bear design featured on their original two dollar coin. Visit Brent at his Gallery in Campbellford, Ontario.
