Dennis Canty

Dennis Canty is a landscape painter working in Baja California and the Pacific Northwest. Many of his paintings focus on the streams, rivers, bays, and open seas around him and are an outgrowth of many years as a sailor, kayaker, and conservationist.

Dennis has been painting seriously since 2017 and has participated in several individual and group shows of his paintings in Mexico and the U.S. He appreciates painting as a way to more clearly see the many shapes, colors, and textures of the earth and to translate them onto canvas, a lifelong challenge. He is largely self-taught but has taken workshops with Marsha Dahlquist and John MacDonald. He primarily works in oils.

Dennis and his wife Lisa live in Todos Santos and Port Hadlock Washington and have four adult children.
