The wilds of nature in all it's diversity is the common denominator for this multi-talented artist. The hills and mountains in the wilderness areas of Northern New England and Northern California are the inspiration for his widely ranging work in various media. Wilson also paints in oils which he prefers to emphasize the atmospheric quality of mountain vistas and winding trails. Still life painting fills in those times when the artist cannot venture into the wilds. Wilson is known for his "landscape portraits" of well known natural beauty spots and paintings of wildlife.

His wildlife art has been exhibited in many of the major Eastern Wildlife Art Shows and two of his paintings were published in Canada as limited edition prints of six thousand each which have sold out.
