LaVern was born just outside of Riding Mountain National Park. With it’s abundance of wildlife and natural serenity brought about the discovery of his Artist Creativity at an early age. While in Brandon, Manitoba, he pursued his artist ability, which eventually led to the Art of Taxidermy and later to a Commercial Art career.

LaVern relocated to the northeast region of Saskatchewan in 1979 where he continued to pursue his passion for creating Art. Influenced by the Impressionistic Realism works of Carl Rungius, Manfred Schatz, Bob Kuhn, and Ken Carlson. He developed his own unique style, inviting the viewer to share in his passion for Nature’s Tranquility and Peace.

Although still active in the sign-making business, he finds time to hone his skill of painting and carving nature’s grandeur. This Saskatchewan Artist has been especially proud of his work with conservation groups and other organizations dedicated to preserving and protecting Wildlife and Natural Habitat.

LaVern has won many awards at prestigious art shows and plans to compete Internationall

I draw & paint most subjects, but I’m compelled to do animals. I am intrigued by all animals, especially the ones I grew up around: deer, elk, moose, bear, coyote, and wolf. I've spent most of my life in the wilderness, hunting & fishing, or just being there.

It takes patience & countless hours of drawing to capture the conceptual composition, behavior and habitat of any animal. I was gifted with the ability to draw, but it still takes hours of sketching, painting & most of all field work to get the picture right. I am never satisfied, that’s what keeps me going. I have spent much time developing a knowledge of the field, which is reflected in my work.

So few people ever get the opportunity to see the other side of animal behavior. I hope through my paintings that I can convey this sometime- unknown facet of nature’s wonders. I am continually impressed by the beauty and power of nature.

I am always searching for different subjects, exploring new ideas to create.

Testimonial

 "LaVern is a very talented artist who has the unique ability to capture in his artwork (painting, carving, sculpture, taxidermy), the very essence of wildlife its natural surroundings. LaVern has been an avid outdoors man all of his life and I believe that this "hands on experience" has helped to foster his in depth understanding of nature. This unique perspective of the natural world is certainly displayed in his artwork. My wife and I do enjoy having a number of pieces of LaVern's art in our home.

As with most good artists, LaVern has been blessed with the ability to visualize, freeing an eagle from a tree stump with his chainsaw, a loon from a piece of driftwood with his homemade carving tools or welding up a dune buggy from an array of material scavenged from the junkyard. Therefore, if you are looking for that unique piece of artwork, need a special mural or sign painted on your vehicle, want a one of a kind carved wooden sign for your home or business or require the services of an artist who can also craft and invent, then I am sure that you will pleased with LaVern's work. I hereby offer without reservation, my sincere endorsement of LaVern's work.
