Brian Jones

Brian Jones is a renowned Canadian artist acclaimed for his exuberant figurative paintings, drawings, and prints.

Over the course of his career, Jones depicted evocative scenes of North American suburban life. Jones dedicated his precise representations on scenes from everyday life, accentuating what is usually perceived as mundane.

While Jones is celebrated for his photorealistic renderings, he is equally revered for his eccentric and boisterous style. In the latter, known as the Neighbours series, Jones utilized rich colors, softened shapes, and curvilinear forms to subvert banal domestic encounters with a light-hearted sense of humor.

Over the course of his career, Jones was the recipient of many accolades including the Queen’s Silver Jubilee award in 1977. His work is celebrated in major public collections across Canada including Canada Council Art Bank, Museum London, and McIntosh Gallery, to name a few.
