Bill Saunders

Born in 1948 in Montreal, Willam J. Saunders acquired a love of Quebec scenery at an early age. He started sketching when he was four years old, painting when he was twelve.

 The farmlands of Quebec and Ontario have become his most inspiring subjects. Time and again he has captured the timeless serenity of an aged farmhouse on a lonely country road, a secluded lake amidst rolling hills and mountains or a sugar shack hidden in a forest of maples. These are scenes he cherishes and tries to preserve through his paintings. As the world rushes forward, Bill Saunders hopes that these scenes will never disappear.

Painting with acrylics he takes a realistic approach to all his paintings and endeavors to include even the smallest details. His works can be found in galleries and private collections throughout Canada as well as galleries in Connecticut, Illinois, Colorado and Minnesota.

 

Né à Montréal en 1948, William J. Saunders a acquis très jeune un amour des paysages québécois. Il a commencé à dessiner à l’âge de quatre ans et à peindre à douze ans.

Les terres agricoles du Québec et de l’Ontario sont devenues les sujets qui l’inspirent le plus. A maintes reprises, il a saisi sur le vif la sérénité éternelle d’une vieille ferme sur un chemin de campagne isolé, un lac retiré au milieu de collines et de montagnes accidentées ou encore une cabane à sucre cachée dans une forêt d’érables. Voici des scènes qu’il chérit et qu’il essaie de conserver par l’entremise de ses peintures. Pendant que le monde s’élance vers le futur, Bill Saunders, lui, espère que ces scènes ne disparaîtront jamais.

Peintes à l’acrylique, toutes ses peintures suivent une approche réaliste et leur auteur s’efforce d’y inclure même le plus petit des détails. Ses oeuvres se trouvent dans des galeries d’art et dans des collections privées à travers le Canada aussi bien que dans des galeries au Connecticut, en Illinois, au Colorado et au Minnesota.
