Wednesday, November 3rd, 2010 A Ross Butler Evening Born and raised in Norwich, Ross Butler was a direct descendant of the Famous Loyalist Colonel John Butler and a self-taught artist who made a lasting impression on the agricultural and art communities in Canada and the United States. Working out of his studio overlooking the Woodstock Town Square, Butler was commissioned by the Ontario government in the 1930's to paint "true types" of Canadian livestock breeds to be used for agricultural education and breeding purposes. Among his many accomplishments as an artist were the "butter" sculptures he created for the annual Canadian National Exhibition and Royal Agricultural Winter Fairs.
