Jonathon Earl Bowser - a Canadian artist of English, French, Scottish, and Chippewa descent - was born in 1962. He began making art as a young child, and graduated from the Alberta College of Art in 1984. After a 5-year career in commercial illustration that helped to refine his technical skills, he changed course in 1989 to pursue instead his own creative visions. His limited-edition prints and collector's plates are now represented by galleries internationally, and his original paintings are in public and private collections across North America, Europe, and Asia - including the government collections of China and Taiwan. The artist's extensive and informative website has an excellent selection of Jonathon's best work, including his unique figurative-landscape paintings that he calls Mythic Naturalism - images looking for the mysterious poetry of which the natural world is made. - mahyar
