Award-Winning Canadian Landscape
Artist Lonny Doherty

Landscape Artist Lonny Doherty was born in Goderich, Ontario. He now lives and works out of his studio on a farm in Williamsford, Ontario.

Lonny is most notable for being a member of the acclaimed artist collective UNTAMED THINGS. The group recently exhibited pieces completed both “en plein air” and in studio which were inspired by four trips to Algonquin Park in 2016/2017 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Tom Thomson’s mysterious death.

Lonny takes inspiration from nature, whether it is an excursion to the countryside or an urban park. His paintings reflect the vibrant colours and natural designs provided by the four distinct seasons in Canada. His Influences include Tom Thomson, Lawren Harris and Claude Monet.

“All good stories require depth, focus, a few carefully chosen details and a certain degree of exaggeration to achieve the desired effect; like memories the way we want to remember them.

These are my stories. I lived them. First Person. Now I am retelling them to you.”

Lonny’s 2001 Landscape, Warm Cloud Tangle, was ranked in the top ten of International Artist Magazine competition, from entrants around the world. (June/July 2002). In 2019, he was once again recognized by International Artist Magazine in the August /September 2019 issue, for his piece Taylor Creek.
​
Lonny’s work shows a careful balance between subtlety and exaggeration, between brisk brush strokes and sharp delineation, with a peaceful appeal that speaks to our deep-seated desire to be close to nature.

In 2015 Lonny launched Lumiscapes™ by L. Doherty a series of unique art products based on his Landscape Paintings.
