ABSTRACTION IN ALL ITS DIMENSIONS.

Picture

Bill Porteous has created and taught art for 46 years. He began his formal art education at the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles where he achieved his Masters of Fine Arts in Painting.

​From his Website: " In 1975 he helped establish the Victoria College of Art. Bill has also held teaching positions at the University of Victoria, Camosun College, University of Saskatchewan at Emma Lake, David Thompson University Centre in Nelson BC, and the Metchosin International Summer School of the Arts. In 1994 he established his Studio Art Program in Victoria."

Bill Porteous's primary artistic focus is on Abstraction in all its dimensions. One can experience the effect of his various collections by observing his careful choice of colours, brush strokes and textures. Bill's abstract works invite feeling and offer a deeper look into the meaning behind each canvas.
