About The Artist

Trained at Queen's University as a nuclear physicist, “Phil the Forecaster" has been a professional meteorologist since 1976 but has always been an artist. Phil paints mostly "en plein air" in oils on canvas outside, surrounded by inspiration. Phil has a passion for life and the environment. Phil’s simple desire is to make the next painting his new favourite … to improve in capturing the essence of the subject with lots of colour and bold strokes!
