An Artist’s Biography

Dan Ostler

Watercolour artist Dan Ostler first came to Vancouver Island while serving with the Canadian military in the mid 80’s, and except for a brief posting to Ottawa prior to retiring has been a resident of various island communities ever since.

As a lifelong hobby photographer, Dan was immediately captivated by the powerful emotion and vibrancy of the island landscape. He began painting on a spur of the moment inspiration one day in ‘98, and now pursues watercolour painting as a full time passion from his studio in Ladysmith, B.C.
