Dwayne Harty is an American-Canadian wildlife and landscape painter.[1]. Dwayne has over 30 years of experience and has been called one of the best Canadian contemporary wildlife painters[2]. Dwayne works out of his studio in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Dwayne is a co-founder of the "Animal Art in the Park" exhibition, which is a wildlife art exhibition held annually in Algonquin Park[3] Dwayne continues to teacher newer artists in the fall at the tanamakoon fall art program. [4]
Early Life
Dwayne was born in the small prairie town of Shaunavon, Saskatchewan in 1957. Dwayne first started drawing wildlife on the prairies at the age of 3 years old.[5] His family moved to Regina, Saskatchewan by the time he entered kindergarten. In his teens, Dwayne attended Campion High School.
Training
By 18 years old Dwayne was committed to developing his skill as an artists. To achieve this goal he began working with Clarence Tillenius at the Okanagan Summer School of the Arts during his summers[6]. The rest of his year was spent in Santa Fe, New Mexico working with Robert Lougheed[7]. With the exception of the 2 years Dwayne spent in New York, he maintained this training for eight years. At the age of 20 Dwayne moved to New York to study at the Art Students League of New York[8]. Dwayne's teachers at the Art Students League of New York included; Steven Kidd, David Leffel, Thomas Fogarty Jr., Robert Beverly Hale and Terence Coyle. While in New York, Dwayne had the chance to met the then Dean of the American animal artists, Paul Bransom. At age 27, Dwayne attended a Bob Kuhn Workshop in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, which would become Dwayne's home about 20 years later.
In 2012, Dwayne was commissioned to join the 'Yellowstone to Yukon: the Journey of Wildlife and Art' exhibition by the The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative.[9] [10] As part of this exhibition, Dwayne spent 3 years exploring some of the most remote parts of North America by horseback, truck, raft, and helicopter.[11] Throughout this journey, Dwayne was able to produce a wealth of paintings, some of which were later displayed as part of the exhibit, while at least one painting was not seen publicly but was added to the private collection of Ted Turner.[12]
