About Wendy Dewar Hughes
Wendy Dewar Hughes began her professional art career in the 1980s, painting representational watercolour landscapes, portraits, and commissions. Gallery representation resulted in her art hanging in homes and businesses on three continents.
After spending most of a year travelling in Europe and living the South of France, she returned to Canada, settling in a small town in British Columbia’s Fraser Valley.
With a goal of reaching a wider audience with her art and design, Wendy created a line of stationery products that she sold wholesale to stores all over North America, plus Australia and the UK. She has licensed her artwork to other companies in the giftware industry for several years and during this time she also had a retail store.
Wendy put her art career on hold while dealing with several family matters. She chose instead to start writing and illustrating books, and coaching other authors. Wendy currently has twenty-nine books in print.
In 2022, at the height of the COVID pandemic, Wendy branched into painting with acrylic paint on canvas, which she says is “a whole different world” to watercolours. Her style is primarily loose florals, and warm intimate scenes that suggest a story.
Wendy Dewar Hughes loves to work with interior designers and decorators to create the perfect colour palette in her art for people’s homes and offices. For information regarding purchasing original art or art prints, please contact Wendy here.
