Brian Croft is a former fighter pilot with the Canadian Forces. Today he is a widely recognized artist whose work emanates from the beautiful surroundings of Langley, British Columbia, Canada. Brian has been a Langley resident for nearly 25 years. His initial adventures into the watercolour medium began in 1996. Almost immediately he introduced a historical and heritage viewpoint into his work and this has become the critical focal element and trademark of his various collections.Brian has developed a research and paint process that produces paintings depicting the pioneering days of Canada. He has now logged over 350 paintings.
The Langley’s Collection is Brian’s cornerstone collection. It includes hundreds of images of the pioneering days in the local B.C. towns of Langley Prairie, Milner, Fort Langley and Murrayville. Other Brian Croft collections are: The Steveston Collection, The Sunshine Coast Collection, The Canadian Skies Collection.
In late 2003 Brian moved boldly onto canvas and in the first 8 months of 2004 he created his latest collection, The Streetcars of Vancouver. These paintings chronicle the colourful, romantic and dynamic history of the B.C. Electric Company’s electrified streetcar and tram service, which commenced in 1890. Brian's work is are on display at Westwind Fine Art Gallery, 20538 Fraser Highway in Langley B.C. Canada, Charisma Gallery in Abbottsford B.C. and at GS & Company, The Gallery at Semiahmoo Centre 107 1711 - 152 Street, White Rock, B.C.
