Jim Pescott left a successful corporate career after thirty years to follow a deep inner passion for Alberta landscapes and the natural light that define them. Jim is self-taught: he lives and creates in Alberta, Canada.
For Jim, painting landscapes involves listening visually to source both the joy in nature and the sanctuary this provides as everything evolves on the canvas through shapes and colours. He’s never really sure what will happen as he paints, and as he says, "The best moment, when my heart really vibrates, is when light touches the canvas. I love to watch the trees dance as the sunlight plays the songs."
Jim's work has exhibited internationally: Cannes, France, Florence, Italy, Rio de Janeiro, New York City, and Monaco. His work has exhibited annually since 2011 in the juried Salon held by the historic Societe National des Beaux-Artes (SNBA) at the Carrousel du Louvre in Paris France.
In 2012, Jim was recognized as a "Master Pointillist" in an award from ArtTour International Magazine for "Excellence In The Arts and Outstanding Career Achievement". Then in 2013, Jim received medal award recognition from France's national Academie Arts-Sciences-Lettres. In 2015, Jim received provisional membership in France’s national and historic Societe National des Beaux-Artes (SNBA)
