Doug Swinton

Visual Art

Douglas Swinton is a Calgary-based painter whose work is inspired by the prairies and mountains of his lifelong home. A teacher, gallery artist, and art supply shop owner, he creates with the same wonder he discovered as a child—seeing painting not just as a career, but as a way of living a life.
