After leaving the army in the early 1960's, Stephen Outhouse worked as a carpenter and labourer. His relief painting are painstakingly carved into wood and painted with the up most detail in the buildings and boats. They are a wonder to see as you seemingly are able to reach into his carved paintings. Recently he has started carving whales and birds. His work is in collections in The Art Gallery Of Nova Scotia and The Museum of Man. A very talented and refreshing folk artist.
