Dan Telosky:
Born and raised on Northern Vancouver Island, Dan worked early on, with pencil sketches of the tugs, small freighters and fishing boats passing his home on Discovery Passage. He later experimented with watercolours & oil paints, but prefers using acrylics, for his landscapes & seascapes,
His many years as a fishing guide, boom man & commercial fisherman, created a strong connection to the sea. Working boats are his favorite subjects. Dan finds that the many faces of the sea provide an endless challenge to try and capture. The beauty and strength of the marine scenes of Vancouver Island are both varied and spectacular. “I can’t imagine living anywhere else. I am fortunate to live in this wonderful place, and to have the ability to paint the scenes that I see regularly, is a bonus. “
Telosky is a director of the Marine Heritage Centre in Campbell River, a member of the International Society of Marine Painters, and an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists, and CR Arts Council.
Telosky has participated in many festivals and shows on Vancouver Island including the Sidney Fine Arts Show (Honourable Mention), FCA Vancouver Landscapes and 365 (Award Winner), FCA Arrowsmith Spring and Fall Show (Award Winner), and Tidemark Theatre ‘3 Artists, 3 Mediums, One Show’.
His paintings reside as far away as Germany and Texas, but the bulk of his work is nearby, where he paints, on Vancouver Island.
