About The Artist

Larry Warkentin began painting in 1977 as a hobby.  He is self-taught

and has spent many hours perfecting his craft.  He loves the outdoors and

has enjoyed many hours bird watching.  The graceful movements of birds

and their unique coloring have captivated him.  He has a particular

fondness for Canadian and American bird species.  His paintings focus on

the distinctive coloring and plumage of each bird and they also reflect his

attention to detail.

Larry has spent numerous years in the Northwest Territories, Canada's

Arctic.  It was during his years in the Arctic where he began to paint other

species of wildlife which can be seen in his northern collection.

Larry is an active student of theology and a clergyman by profession.  It is

his conviction that art is truly one of God’s gifts to us.

Larry’s watercolors can be found throughout Canada from the east coast

to the west coast, including the Arctic.  Great Britain has also been home

to some of Larry’s works.
