Collin Bogle combines watercolors, colored pencil and pastel to create his superbly-lighted, realistic and almost photographic paintings.

The son of a renowned American artist, Collin learned the concepts of technique, composition and design from his father, later refining his skills and setting out on his own artistic path. His remarkable ability to capture detail and to master the use of light in natural settings became hallmarks of his work.

"Light plays a major role in my work," states the artist. "An abundance of light and shadows creates a playground for me, and allows a painting to take on a life of its own."
