About the Artist

Artist Bruce works by the principle, never paint where you haven’t been & never paint what you cannot feel. He paints Traditional Realism; continues to look at new frontiers while paying homage to his learned images of Australia, the sea, the city & his beloved landscapes. His direction is increasingly that of a storyteller with mood, atmosphere & the eternal pursuit of light. You will find his workshops interesting, good value pattern, light mood atmosphere, focus, depth and practice, practice & more practice
