From idyllic portrayals of the British Columbia farm on which he was raised to the noirish mystery of sidewalk cafes, Brent Heighton’s watercolors glow with masterful subtleties of color and light. A professional painter for 25 years, Heighton was originally a commercial artist who grew weary of the field’s creative limitations. Adept at expressing himself in representational, impressionistic and abstract styles, Heighton has traveled to Europe and Mexico seeking inspiration for his art, attuned to the different colors of light that characterize each country.
