Artist Bruce Dumas, a New England native, has been painting professionally since 1982. His passion for art began in childhood with sketching and drawing. Initially focused on Fantasy and Science Fiction imagery, he transitioned to creating landscape paintings and subsequently began depicting wildlife subjects in their natural environments. He previously painted with oil, but now works exclusively with acrylics on canvas, covering a wide range of nature, landscapes, seascapes, and harbor scenes encountered during his field trips throughout New England and along the east coast. His vibrant use of contrast and color, combined with detailed yet natural brushstrokes, brings his canvases to life.

Bruce Dumas is an award-winning painter who has exhibited in numerous fine art shows and galleries across Connecticut, Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Vermont. He has held successful solo exhibitions at venues such as the Aardvark Art Studio, CT Audubon Coastal Center, The Sandman Gallery, and Patrick's Fine Art Gallery in NYC. Dumas also exhibited and sold his paintings at the Greenwich Workshop Gallery, one of Connecticut's premier galleries.

Bruce is a member of the Naples Art Association and the Lyme Art Association, where he contributed to their brochure illustration. He is represented by Art Licensing International, a prominent art licensing and publishing company.

Bruce studied art at Paier College of Art, and his artwork is currently displayed at Coconut Grove Gallery & Interiors in Miami, FL and Center Framing & Art in West Hartford, CT.
