Luther Brigman is an artist from Canada. He has been drawing most of his life. His artworks are mostly wildlife, native art. He also does portraits, carving, painting, etc. He has been mostly self taught, has been influenced by observing others, and learning things from different people in his life, mostly his father. He prefers to use photographs as a reference for his pieces, for the reason that, light and color change every second, and a photo is the only way to capture all the true colors and lighting of an image.
