Welcome to the blog of Canadian artist Graham Watts, where you will find the latest visual art news, my personal views and musings, as well as a glimpse into my art studio and creative process.

As a Canadian artist, I am deeply inspired by the natural beauty and urban landscape of my country, from the rugged mountains of Whistler to the bustling streets of Vancouver. I use photographs from my travels as well as my imagination, fueled by music and the world around me, to create my paintings. My style can be described as faintly surreal art, with a focus on bold colours and dynamic compositions.

Thank you for joining me on this journey.
