William Philip Ross Munro is born of an American Mother and a Canadian Father and exhibits in both Countries as well as the Bahamas. This site contains works of art from different periods in Ross' career and artistic production.

The paintings and photography of this artist have found their origins in the works of Modern Masters such as Henri Matisse, Paul Cezanne, Picasso, and Pierre Puvis de Chavanne as well as in that of Renaissance Artists such as Michael Angelo and Leonardo da Vinci as a natural corollory of his five years of classical training at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux Arts in Paris, France. The tradition of portraying the human condition is also found in Contemporary Artists such as Sandro Chia whose work often seems to parallel that of this Fine Artist.

Munro's studies in Engineering lend a mathematical base to his compositions which are often derived from the "Golden Section" format used in Ancient Greece. This analytical approach provides a base in many of Ross' Commissioned Works allowing for harmonious configurations designed to perfectly fit the required space of each project.

In Ross' new paintings, the E-scapes, diptych configurations, juxtaposing images in mixed media, are used to evoke questions of Society and Environmental issues.

The most recent production not to miss on this site is the Underwater Figure Series which has become most popular and highly acclaimed.

Munro creates his imagery combining visual concepts of both figurative and abstract art in a moving synthesis of spirit and emotion. His works may be found in many Collections of note, including that of the Art Bank of The Canada Council for the Arts.
