Welcome to John C Butt's Website

Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. Please take a few moments to scroll around through the painting, sculpture and inspiration pages.

With easy to get to headings like “inspirations” for example, you can read and see images that will be the basis of new artworks. I’ll try to show with photos, and explain in a few words how an idea or fleeting image is translated into a sculptural work, or painting.


You will find “links” and “galleries” that will take you to venues that represent and sell my art, or you can “contact” me at this site. I will gladly welcome your ideas and your own inspirations. It may not always be about art...you may get a glimpse into sailing on our beautiful coastal waterways...building motorcycles, or just roaming around White Rock, British Columbia seeking out those magical glimpses of life in the slow lane.

"Point Roberts Surf" is my most recent acrylic painting that has been completed as a commission work, and placed with a collector and patron in Alberta. This piece measures 72" by 36" and captures the first calm and colour after a Strait of Georgia storm.
