Collection: KEN NUTT

KEN NUTT is an award-winning Canadian fine artist and children's book illustrator based in Stratford, Ontario. To separate his commercial work from his fine art, he uses the pen name Eric Beddows for his illustration work. Born in 1951, Nutt studied Fine Arts at York University before moving to Stratford where he has been an active member of the artistic community for decades. In addition to his accomplished drawings and numerous acclaimed children's books, Nutt has contributed original artwork for Stratford Festival productions, including The Art of War (2025). His mixed media drawings and paintings have been widely exhibited across Canada, including works housed in the permanent collection of the Woodstock Art Gallery.
