Picture
       Connor S Read is an acrylic painter and watercolorist. A predominantly self-taught artist, Read spent the early part of his career painting portraits and wildlife for friends and family. Read later dedicated himself to painting full-time, and became adept at illustrating beautiful perspectives inspired from his nature outings. Driven to capturing the serenity and beauty of the natural world, often focusing on the majestic forms of birds, his artwork not only shows his unique understanding of form, color, texture and light to capture natural effects, but reveals a signature combination of realism and expression. This is especially clear in his two new paintings of Painted Buntings.
​       As a bird enthusiast, adventurer, and artist, I am driven to capture the serenity and beauty of the natural world. Through my acrylic and watercolor artworks, I aim to inspire a sense of wonder and awe, while also highlighting the importance of conservation and protection of our planet's precious wildlife and habitats. My art is a journey through the secluded landscapes and habitats that are home to the incredible diversity of bird species. I emphasize the colorful plumage and graceful forms of my avian subjects with bold and vibrant acrylic paint, while my watercolor works are softer and more ethereal, capturing the dreamy quality of misty landscapes and hidden waterways. With every brushstroke, I hope to transport viewers to the wild spaces I've been fortunate enough to experience, and to inspire a sense of responsibility to preserve these treasures for future generations. By combining art and activism, I strive to make a positive impact on the world, one painting at a time.
