Brett James Smith
If there was ever an
artist who captured today’s sporting experience with yesterday’s sense of
adventure, it is Brett Smith. Born on March 19, 1958 in New Orleans, LA, Smith
is now considered to be among the best in his field.
In college as a fine art major, Smith realized that the contemporary art
curriculum would not equip him with the background needed to pursue the area
that interested him most – commercial illustration. It was at that time that he
enrolled in the Famous Artist School. Smith left school and began a career on
his own as a commercial illustrator. As subjects for his paintings he chooses
familiar landscapes and acquaintances he has made over years of hunting and
fishing across the country. Sportsmen nationwide collect his work because it is
not only visually exciting but also authentic and brings to bear his intimate
knowledge of his sporting experience.
Smith’s work has been featured in Gray’s Sporting Journal, Ducks Unlimited
magazine, Sporting Classics, Shooting Sportsman and Double Gun Journal. Brett
has been recognized for his work with such organizations as GCCA, Atlantic
Salmon Federation, Ruffed Grouse Society, Ducks Unlimited and many others. He
divides his time with his wife Cindy and two children in Covington, LA and Noxon,
MT.
