Original statement regarding Derek's works by Wendie Busig-Kohn: 

When I first discovered the brilliant art works of Artist Derek Rutt, my first impression was that I wanted to step into each scene, smell every flower.  More than renowned artists like Renoir, Van Gogh, or even Rembrandt, he takes us to places we have been, and to other scenes throughout the world, we have yet to travel to.  I see so much beauty in each and every brush stroke!  His works tell us a story; his story.  We are inspired as we travel throughout the world, through the genius of his paint brushes!  He is not only a brilliant artist, he is a modest one.  Quietly creating masterpieces for all of us to share in our homes, ART4GOOD Foundation is truly honored to represent this artist!

More: 

Derek Rutt was born in London in 1938 just before the second world war which had a great effect on his life .  He was educated in private schools and when he was 13 he was sent to Aldenham a top public school. He was always interested in art and took extra classes and won first and second prizes at the age of 15…. in art but he never went to an art school.

He came to Thailand in 1988 and live on the Island of Phuket for 6 years where he started painting seriously …as he says “there is so much feeling in Thailand and such wonderful subjects and the light is great!!” He later moved to Bankok in 1994.
