Jim Wieshlow - Artist
About Jim Wieshlow
Jim Wieshlow is best known for his oil and acrylic works. His inspiration includes beauty from diverse landscapes experienced through travel, and from the diversity entwined in the people, places and things that surround his daily existence.
Jim is a true Calgarian, born and bred at home on the prairie. His travels have taken him all over our beautiful nation, and abroad; but in his heart, Calgary is home.
Jim’s day job is computer programmer, and by night he is an aspiring artist. His oil realism technique developed initially under the guidance of Tracy Gardner, but overall Jim is primarily self- taught. Jim enjoys challenging himself with acrylics and new techniques, and is ever ready to expand and improve on his repertoire through courses, classes and experimentation.
His art work can be found in private residences around the Calgary area, Edmonton and on Vancouver Island.
