GUY GOODWIN
Following a career in television news, Guy began pursuing painting. His friendships with Elgin artist Clark McDougall and Port Stanley artist Paul Schleusner provided inspiration and direction and strengthened his conviction that local scenes are the most fertile subjects for meaningful art.
“I can recall reading an article in The Saturday Evening Post about the famous American artist Andrew Wyeth in which he stated, “Everything I need as an artist I can
find in Chadd’s Ford. That places population? Twelve.”
Today’s paintings range in size from 8”x10” to 3’x4’ and originals and prints have been ordered from as far afield as Kuwait and England. (The Kuwait sale was the most unusual due to its large size and subject.. the Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton.)
