Collection: Bruce Tyner

Bruce Tyner works primarily in encaustics (painting with hot beeswax) while also incorporating his photography and other mediums. After many years using watercolour, pastels and many other mediums he discovered encaustic and saw the potential of this art form. “I just like the way that the hot wax can be formed and manipulated and can sometimes flow into a whole new direction from what it was originally intended” 

In the past year and a half Bruce has been including UV reactive medium in his works to add a whole new dimension to a very intriguing medium to work with. 

Born and raised in Hamilton Ontario, and living in Texas and Tennessee before moving to Bracebridge, Bruce has drawn on his varied experience to shape his art works, focusing mainly on landscapes and portraits. Bruce can be found in his studio, a converted 150 year old church in the quaint village of Muskoka Falls.

Bruce studied at South Plains College in Levelland Texas majoring in Audio Engineering and Performing Arts Technology with a minor in Fine Arts.

Bruce is an award winning artist, a member of Muskoka Arts and Crafts, a former member of the Murfreesboro Art League in Tennessee.
